Theses What would you contribute to MAS as an officer? The Mississippi Academy of Sciences is an entity with a lot of potential that can represent the academic community with our political leadership and serve as an advisory board to decision makers. I believe that we should be more active, increase our exposure, and help in the development of policy to increase science knowledge in our schools. We should also increase our meeting attendance and participation by working hard to recruit members and find ways to bring more students to our meetings. One thing could be the sponsoring of one student (at least) by each of the divisions. In short, if elected, I will be there to serve the society and increase its visibility |
