<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Hubbard Brook Grad Students: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We need your feedback on a great opportunity for this coming January. The Hubbard Brook Committee of Scientists (COS) meets quarterly, with the fall, winter, and spring meetings at the Cary Institute in Millbrook, and the summer meeting
at Hubbard Brook immediately following the Annual Cooperator’s Meeting. The themes of the meetings range from project science reports, to communication workshops, to LTER proposal writing workshops, and more.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This January, the COS is considering focusing the meeting on graduate students! This would be a great opportunity to network, showcase our work, develop collaborations, and to get professional development. The format would be one day of
graduate student talks and a half day dedicated to professional development. <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In order to move forward, we need to gauge interest in this type of event.
