>Mark your calendars!  The next EnviroForum is coming in a few weeks. 
>In case you missed the last one in November (which was a great 
>success), EnviroForums are a series of events supported by 
>Chancellor Clay that are designed to bring together MIT's diverse 
>community interested in the issues of environment, sustainability, 
>and related issues.  Each event will provide an opportunity for 
>attendees to meet like-minded individuals for networking, 
>socializing, and informal conversation.  Attendees include MIT 
>graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, researchers, staff, 
>and members of the administration.
>
>MIT's second EnviroForum takes place Thursday, January 22 from 
>4:00-6:00 pm in Lobby 13 and will focus on opportunities for 
>innovative, multidisciplinary research.  MIT Chief Facilities 
>Officer Victoria Sirianni will discuss collaboration efforts between 
>faculty, students, and facilities on key efforts to enhance MIT's 
>environmental performance.  EAPS Professor Kip Hodges will highlight 
>education and research benefits of treating the campus as a learning 
>laboratory.  We also will have displays at this event presented by 
>researchers, student groups, and operations divisions that describe 
>a variety of work being conducted at MIT related to environmental 
>issues.  We hope that you will use the time after the brief 
>presentations from the speakers to look at the displays and 
>establish links among your work and other activities conducted at 
>MIT.  As before, refreshments will be provided.
>
>Feel free to forward this message to all interested parties.  If you 
>are interested in presenting a poster, please send me a message 
>(jgregory at mit.edu) and we will be sure to reserve a space for you.

>We look forward to seeing you on the 22nd!
