Research Workshops – Half-day workshops have been scheduled to further develop and stimulate collaborative ideas on research themes identified through the Strategic Planning process. There are four themes: Understanding and Protecting the Planet, Exploring the Basis of Human Knowledge and Creativity, Enriching the quality of Human Life and Health, and Understanding Cultures and Addressing Disparities in Social Justice, Access Equity and Inclusion. The deadline for the first of the three workshops has closed and the deadline to submit an abstract for the last (February 11th) workshop is tomorrow, Wednesday, January 29th. Current initiatives coming from the Regents focus on Ph.D. students, Post Docs, and Undocumented Students, which will increase campus diversity.

These initiatives will be a five million dollar one time investment, spread over the ten campuses. 2014 – 2015 Senate Election – The first step in the election process is the nomination process.
