COMMITTEES
We currently have three committees driving our chapter's activities. If you would like to get involved in any of them, go to the #new channel of our Discord. We look forward to having you join us!
Education & Outreach Committee
Conservation Committee
The Education and Outreach committee coordinates opportunities for SCB members to engage with non-academic audiences on conservation topics. We have run an elementary-school program called "Watch it, Don't Squash it!"
We will also develop new activities for SCB members to get experience with outreach, so let us know if you have ideas for activities and watch the SCB listserve for more ways to get involved.
Committee Chairs: seeking candidates!
The Sustainability Committee was founded in 2008 as an independent committee through the Graduate Group in Ecology. As of spring 2014, it has been operating as a committee within the SCB-D. The group is currently coordinating the use of an ever growing collection of reusable place settings for campus events and collaborating with the campus sustainability coordinator to expand the our efforts to make departmental trips carbon neutral.
Committee Chairs: Megan & Mary
This committee is designed to promote discussion in an informal setting regarding issues related to conservation, policy, sustainability and education, encourage collaborations across different SCB chapters, and fundraisers. Past events have included quarterly happy hours, film nights and day trips. Stay tuned for upcoming events that will be announced on this site and the listserve.
Suggestions for future events and ways to fundraise are welcome and appreciated! Please contact our committee chair or treasurer.
