    @GIRS Member - don't forget about the tour of Central Campus's Marine Biology department on Saturday. We will meet in the lobby at 2pm. Parking is across the street.

    I hope you can make it! It should be a good event!

    Aww dangit! I knew there was something else this weekend. I'll be in MN for my niece's dance recital.

    Really want to see how the program has evolved in the ~15 years since I was in it.

    Glad that everyone had a good time. It was a very interesting tour. Too bad the weather was so nice that day, I think it kept some people home, since we haven't had that many really nice days this spring.
