This will be our second and, almost certainly, final virtual conference. While we know there are limits to a virtual platform, by now we’ve learned to navigate online events to make the most of our experience. Last year’s ASEE Annual Conference was a success by almost any measure, and all of us—ASEE staff, leaders, volunteers, and you, our attendees—contributed to a great meeting. We are confident that this year’s event will be even better. Whether attending in person or on a computer, one thing remains the same, and that’s the tremendous amount of great content that ASEE’s Annual Conference unfailingly delivers. From our fantastic plenary speakers, paper presentations, and technical sessions to our inspiring lineup of Distinguished Lectures and panel discussions, you will have many learning opportunities and take-aways. I hope you enjoy this week’s events and please feel free to “find” me and reach out with any questions or comments! Sincerely, SHERYL SORBY ASEE President 2020-2021 2 Schedule subject to change.

This attitude puzzles me, because all the evolutionary biologists whom I know — and I know many! — are driven by a love for nature, and to them nothing is more exciting than to uncover some hidden aspect of a natural system. 24 Ray Troll: A Story of Fish, Fossils, and Funky Art By Hannelore Sudermann Ray Troll ’81 has a species of ratfish named after him, Hydrolagus trolli.

  • Play on and Thanks the Director Wes for “Creating a Pleasant Working Environment and Not Striking Terror Into All Our Hearts”
    From the President... your soon to be favorite room. Welcome Village Players Family, THE BATH FITTER. I had hoped by the time I wrote this letter I wouldn’t have to think of things like unemployment, recession, war, or disasters (natural or man-made). But the truth is that our region is still struggling to find jobs, we wrestle with the idea of loosening purse strings, and oil is still washing up on our shores. The pulse of America is metered, we make decisions for our families cautiously, our hearts ache for our men and women who fight so far from home, and we hope our leaders make decisions that are right and just, not merely popular. This isn’t the first time that our country has faced crises; it’s not even the worst crisis we’ve encountered. But these are our times, and these are our problems. However, in times of trouble it is the arts that lift the spirit and the soul. The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, and The Mamas and the Papas were inspired by Vietnam. The movies of Cecil B. DeMille, and the music of the Big Bands were born from the World Wars. Pal Joey, Porgy and Bess, Oklahoma!, Mikado, Pirates of Penzance, Carousel, and Showboat (just to name a few) made their Broadway debuts during WWII! Music, television, cinema, and theatre can be a window on a different time and place, or a mirror of reality and stark truth. They give us the opportunity to momentarily escape or challenge us to gain new perspectives.
