Winter Botany Hike @Smith Creek Preserve, February 22, 10 am to 1 pm. Sponsored by the University of Arkansas Herbarium & Arkansas Native Plant Society.
Winter Schminter, we're going botanizing! Join @jenoglesplants.bsky.social & @andrewruegsegger.bsky.social for a hike at @nature.org 's Smith Creek Preserve.
Cold weather won't stop us, but rain, snow, or ice will so find news and cancellation info at biology.uark.edu/herbarium/events.php.
I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔
