Plans for this year's Marine-Estuarine-Environmental-Sciences (MEES) Colloquium to be held Friday, October 17th - Saturday, October 18th, 2008 hosted by UMCES Chesapeake Biological Laboratory are now in place. This is a special event where graduate students and faculty from across the University System of Maryland meet to discuss environmental research and education.

This gathering is the only opportunity each year for those in the MEES Program to meet as a group, and we hope that all faculty and students will make every effort to attend. We will have two days of interesting oral and poster presentations, discussion, and good food so we really look forward to seeing you all in Solomons come October!
