Director's Message
Dear Colleagues,
I’m afraid more sad news with Alan Harding being laid to rest last Friday. Alan will be fondly remembered by many in the School with a large contingent of friends travelling to Temora to farewell him.
Congratulations to Dr Sergey Kruk on being selected for the 2018 Australia-China Young Scientists Exchange Program run by the Australian Academy of Technology and Engineering.
If you are a Level A academic seeking promotion this year please let me know.
With NAIDOC week commencing I can highly recommend our new online Indigenous Cultural Awareness program open to all staff. There are a series of great activities this NAIDOC week, including activities for families on school holidays (see below).
A reminder for the retrospective of ANU visiting artists, there will be a reception at 6:00pm today. RSPE has hosted five resident artists, from a very talented group of 15 scattered around the ANU.
This week’s pic shows Drs Rose Ahlefeldt and Kate Fergusson (left and right) with our guest of honour, Ms Keira Joyce (centre) for which we ran last week’s raffle in support of her trip to the London International Youth Science Forum. Prizes went to Michael Hall (1st), Ross Tranter (2nd) and Patrick Romero (3rd). Many thanks to Sue for making it so much fun!
Regards,
Tim |
