I’ve been elected to be Member-at-Large of the Ecological Society of America starting at the close of the 100th annual meeting in August 2015.  I’m excited about this chance to serve the Society in a different way, and in particular to tackle issues about diversity in ecology, including ensuring that award nominations and presentations are done in a balanced way.

One of our senior Honors students, Annie Fagan ’15, is blogging about her field work adventures at Palo Verde in Costa Rica during December 2014.  Check it out at http://puravidapaloverde.wordpress.com

For now, I’ll just link to HER blog, but may reblog some of it later, as well.
