Attention conservation professionals: if you have some good ideas for conservation-themed projects, now you can use our new conservation project idea clearinghouse to recruit student or faculty assistance from our local colleges and universities! Examples of what we are talking about would include research projects, management plans, GIS analyses, etc etc. Check out the clearinghouse at: http://wiki.trianglescb.org/research-ideas To receive permission to post your ideas, simply send an email to Scott Anderson at scott.anderson@trianglescb.org Once we get a good initial set of ideas posted, we will start promoting the clearinghouse to relevant academic institutions across North Carolina. So, if you want your favorite idea (you know, the one that you've been kicking around in your head for years but never found the right person to carry it out) to receive maximum attention, be sure to get it posted soon! Many thanks, and Happy Holidays! Ron Sutherland, President, Triangle SCB |
