SPS Zone Meeting Update

Hey everyone,

As most of you (hopefully) know, Towson SPS is hosting the 2010 SPS Zone 4 Meeting.  Just as a reminder, the zone meeting is being held Friday, April 16th and Saturday, April 17th and the registration fee is $15.  Friday is planned as more of an informal, social event.  There will be a planetarium show and a few activities planned.  The presentations will take place Saturday with lunch included.  Check out http://www.towson.edu/sps/zonemeeting2010/index.html for more information and http://www.towson.edu/sps/zonemeeting2010/zonemeetingagenda.pdf for a tentative schedule for Saturday and list of abstracts.

If you are interested in hearing about what other SPS chapters are up to and learning a bit about your faculty's research, please register as soon as possible at http://www.towson.edu/sps/zonemeeting2010/registration.html so that we can get a more accurate count for food Friday night and lunch on Saturday.  At this point, we can't guarantee a t-shirt, but if there are any left over you will be welcome to one.  We are also collecting registration fees from Towson students ahead of time to help fund some of the expenses for the meeting.  Please see an SPS officer in Smith Hall room 415 with your registration money.

Thanks,
Derek

P.S.  We have a few students from out of town staying overnight Friday.  If you are a student living on campus and are willing to house a visiting student, please reply and let us know as soon as possible.
