AAe Member~ , • RHODA MELTZER GILINSKY '49 In the College greenhome a botan~' student carefully tucks the sand around a new cutting in her own small garden plot. What should an enlightened lay person know about the world of plants? BETTY FLANDERS THOMSON-In the College green- house Miss Thomson (right), Professor of Botany, scrutin- izes carefully as her students examine the roots of a cutting. The author of the delightful book, The Changing Face of New England (Macmillan, 1958), she is a sensitive and gifted observer of the natural world. She feels that a knowledge of the natural world is as much a mark of an educated person as a knowledge of the works of man. She is working now on a companion volume to her first book which will describe for the lay reader the landscape of our Midwest and its evolu- tion and meaning. Miss Thomson received her Ph.D. from Columbia after earning her B.A. and M.A. at Mt. Holyoke. In 1943 she joined the faculty of Connecticut College and this year is Acting Chairman. Her work on "The Role of Light in Histogenesis and Differentiation in Angiosperms" was spon- sored by a grant from the National Science Foundation. BOTANY a subject • for professional use • for understanding and enjoyment OR twenty years and more the introductory statement F in the College catalogue about the Botany Depart- ment's offerings has said, "Courses are designed both for students who wish to make professional use of their training and for those who desire to increase their under- standing and enjoyment of their naturah surroundings." As the world and the College have changed. in that time, this "There is so much ... rwo-fold approach seems co have increasing relevance, and our major students usually choose courses for both purposes. that is new, exciting, Although this is a small department, we manage to and thought-provoking ... " offer a choice of subject matter by giving a1l our advanced courses in alternate years, so that teachers have reasonable schedules and course enrollments are adequately large, and by designating certain courses given in the Zoology De- partment as part of our major. These are identified by listing them in the catalogue under the title of Biology. As background for professional scientists we offer the classical courses in taxonomy, anatomy, physiology, micro- biology, and evolution of plants. These are augmented by Dr. Bernice Wheeler's Genetics and Dr. John Kent's Rad- iation Biology, both taught in the Zoology Department. Rules for laboratory procedures in the latter are spelled Out in detail by the Atomic Energy Commission. For obvious reasons, no one whose technique is in the least clumsy or BY BETfY FLANDERS THOMSON careless can be allowed to handle even innocuously radio- ACTING CHAIRMAN active materials, however brilliant her intellectual perform.

  • Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents
    Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents Background This ships list is intended to provide VA regional offices with a resource for determining whether a particular US Navy or Coast Guard Veteran of the Vietnam era is eligible for the presumption of Agent Orange herbicide exposure based on operations of the Veteran’s ship. According to 38 CFR § 3.307(a)(6)(iii), eligibility for the presumption of Agent Orange exposure requires that a Veteran’s military service involved “duty or visitation in the Republic of Vietnam” between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. This includes service within the country of Vietnam itself or aboard a ship that operated on the inland waterways of Vietnam. However, this does not include service aboard a large ocean- going ship that operated only on the offshore waters of Vietnam, unless evidence shows that a Veteran went ashore. Inland waterways include rivers, canals, estuaries, and deltas. They do not include open deep-water bays and harbors such as those at Da Nang Harbor, Qui Nhon Bay Harbor, Nha Trang Harbor, Cam Ranh Bay Harbor, Vung Tau Harbor, or Ganh Rai Bay. These are considered to be part of the offshore waters of Vietnam because of their deep-water anchorage capabilities and open access to the South China Sea. In order to promote consistent application of the term “inland waterways”, VA has determined that Ganh Rai Bay and Qui Nhon Bay Harbor are no longer considered to be inland waterways, but rather are considered open water bays.
