High Priority Event
Mentoring session: Registration for the spring semester is coming up ! So Nu Rho Psi is going to give our wonderful underclassmen our bestest advice at our fall semester Mentoring Session. Monday, 11/13. 9-11pm in the AMR MPR . So we need people to help out with making announcements and such. Since we are targeting neuro students only, there is no need to go to all the science classes. Select the classes you can make announcements in through the yahoogroup poll:
Announce date, time, place, and FOOD. Write them on the board. Post on WebCT if you're a TA. Unless you are in the class anyway, I'd try to make it to the Wed or Thurs ones so that it's a little closer to the event. I will have Aaron email everyone around that time as well.
The day of mentoring, the more mentors we have, the better, since that way we have more classes covered. You will get hours for helping ! Contact Catherine ( catherinechoi@jhu.edu )
with any questions. Thanks
Committee Opportunities
Making Neuroscience Fun: Time to get MNF going! We need committee members not only for presentations, but for setting up, making presentations, training sessions, etc. You can help out even if you don't present! Email Kevin Chen kchen19@jhu.edu if interested.
Website: A committee is needed to work with Aaron on addressing the needs of our website. If you have an interest in working on this project e-mail Theresa: theresa.keating@gmail.com
Alumni Relations: We want to keep in contact with all our great NRP alumni, so we need a committee of people to help do this. If you are interested, please e-mail Theresa ( theresa.keating@gmail.com), she will be arranging a meeting with the committee and Dr. Gorman to determine our Alumni Relation goals.
Lab Guide: Similar to the ACE Guide for classes, Nu Rho Psi will be making a Lab Guide to give Neuro students feedback from other majors about what it is like to work in different labs around the Hopkins campuses. Committee members are needed to create the evaluation forms for students to fill out and to develop a system for compiling this information. If interested please contact Ali ( awen1@jhu.edu).
Social
Nu Rho Psi Social: Save the date! Tuesday, December 12th from 6-10pm we will be hosting a social for all Nu Rho Psi members. Details will follow, but make sure to save this date for a great time!
