[Editors] Tweet This!

[Elizabeth A Thomson]

Hello, O Editors

Yesterday I read fellow Editors' Club member Tom Gearty's article on the MIT News site about the petition MIT graduate students are circulating to "demonstrate to members of Congress and the larger public that federal support for science and engineering plays a vital role in U.S. economic growth."

Occurred to me that many of you might want to tweet/post Tom's story (or a direct link to the petition). Some of you already have!

Anyway, here's the link to Tom's story, which also has a very nice (IMO) video:

NOTE: the deadline for signing the petition is THIS COMING MONDAY, November 21.

Cheers,

Elizabeth
