Dear Members,
Here is some information about our next few meetings and information about a summer research opportunity if you could please tell your students if you are a professor or can get the information out to freshmen students on social media.
If you are a freshman now and will be a sophomore in fall 2018, consider this summer 2018 opportunity funded by the National Science Foundation where you will receive research experience at the University of South Florida in the area of weather, climate, and society. Freshmen students from all majors are encouraged to apply.
