<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The Natural History Collections Club Network (NHCCN) will be
hosting a ½ day workshop at the annual meeting of the Association of
Southeastern Biologists (ASB) in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The meeting will
take place from March 28-31, 2018 and the workshop will be on Thursday, March
29. We have funding to support up to six individuals to attend the workshop and ASB. The
NHCCN is made of several clubs that are curator-advised, student-driven
organizations aimed at enhancing local natural history collections by helping
to train student volunteers to assist in curating and managing them. The
network represents clubs from all types of universities but seems to most
benefit those with small collections as a way to protect and raise enthusiasm
for their collections. We are particularly interested in institutions with
small collections and/or minority serving institutions but anyone is welcome to
apply. Application deadline is February 16, 2018. <span></span></p>
