Karen Guzman, Chair, Local Arrangements Committee 2012 Local Arrangements Committee John Bartlett Lin Coker Chris Havran Emily Bloom Renee Green Sharon Mason Liz Blue Karen Guzman Michelle Thomas NCAS President’s Welcome Welcome to the 109th Annual Meeting of the North Carolina Academy of Science on the beautiful campus of Campbell University! The North Carolina Academy of Science held its first organizational meeting on March 21, 1902, presided by William L. Poteat, and we have been growing ever since! We are very excited that you could join us as we discuss topics important to all North Carolinians, showcase the talents of the next generation of researchers, promote new collaborations and renew old friendships. Our annual meeting partially fulfills our mission to promote public appreciation of science, science education, scientific research and a meaningful role for science in public policy. This year’s event focuses on Environmental Stewardship and includes a Keynote Address on “Biodiversity- The Most Beautiful Carbon” by Dr. Stuart L. Pimm a public forum on the “Exploration for Natural Gas and the Future of NC, a Scientific Perspective” and many student and faculty research presentations. We hope that this meeting stimulates you to ask the important questions, become an active part of your community and know that through knowledge and understanding, you can make a difference in the world! I would like to thank Dr. Jerry Wallace, President of Campbell University, for allowing us the opportunity to share your wonderful green space. I would also like to commend the outstanding leadership of Dr Mark Hammond, Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences and the many others throughout the University who worked tirelessly to make the 109th Annual NCAS meeting a success. Melanie Lee-Brown NCAS President, 2011-2012 Campbell University - 1 Campbell University President’s Welcome Dear Friends: Welcome to Campbell University. On behalf of the entire Campbell University community, welcome to Buies Creek and the 2012 meeting of the North Carolina Academy of Science. We are honored to host this meeting and each participant. I hope you will find the program engaging and the accommodations at Campbell comfortable. The purpose of the North Carolina Academy of Science’s annual meeting – to showcase the talents of the next generation of researchers and promote public appreciation of science education and research – is a noble and worthwhile cause. This year’s event topic, Environmental Stewardship, is equally important, and I know each and every attendee will be challenged to think deeply about the role of higher education in the stewardship of the natural world and the development of important public policy. Campbell University has a long and well-documented commitment to the natural sciences. Since the opening of our School of Pharmacy in 1986, Biology and Chemistry have become the most popular undergraduate majors at Campbell. Most of the students in these majors declare themselves to be Pre-Pharmacy, Pre-Medicine, or related pre-professional. In fall 2011, Campbell welcomed a new Physicians Assistant program, and current plans call to launch a new School of Osteopathic Medicine in fall 2013. Thank you again for your participation at this year’s North Carolina Academy of Science’s annual meeting. It is an honor for Campbell University to host this important event. Best wishes, Jerry M Wallace President, Campbell University Campbell University Campbell University is a private, Baptist affiliated, liberal arts university nestled in the heart of Harnett County, North Carolina. Home to approximately 3,000 students, Campbell is focused on connecting with each student on a personal basis and helping them find a path to success in and out of the classroom. For 125 years, Campbell University has maintained its focus on a well-rounded education through faith, learning, and service. Campbell University began as Buies Creek Academy on January 5, 1887.There were 21 students, sixteen that gathered with their teacher, James Archibald Campbell, and five who were busy building the nearby schoolhouse. Focusing on the importance of a Christian education, Campbell’s enthusiastic approach to instruction was a well-received addition to the area. By the end of the term in May 1887, the Academy’s enrollment had grown significantly, from those first sixteen students to ninety-two students, now packed into a one-room 40x22 ft. school building. Now, 125 years later, Campbell is proud of how far it has come. The University is comprised of six schools: The College of Arts & Sciences, the College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences, Divinity School, Lundy-Fetterman School of Business, Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law and School of Education. In Fall 2013, we will welcome our seventh school, the School of Osteopathic Medicine. In addition to the main campus in Buies Creek, Campbell also has additional campuses in Research Triangle Park, Camp Lejeune and Fort Bragg/Pope AFB. Recently, the law school relocated to downtown Raleigh. Proud of its heritage, Campbell remains committed to its mission of providing students with a Christian worldview and a charge to be “the salt of the earth and the light of the world.” 2 - NC Academy of Science Summary Schedule Friday March 23rd 1:00-2:00 Finance & Strategic Planning Committee Meetings, Maddox, Rm 117 2:00-5:00 Board of Directors Meeting, Maddox, Rm 117 5:00-6:00 Registration and Poster Setup, John W.
