If you are having difficulties please do not hesitate to contact me.

Bev, please forward this to Principal Researchers and Technicians and Students
Hello Everyone,
Attached is a working draft of The Growth Area User Handbook developed over the last months with the help and input of technicians and students. It is also available on the "S" drive (go to public, greenhouse and you will find it).
It is meant to provide students, technicians and researchers a resource to communicate protocol and etiquette for users of the growth rooms, growth chambers and greenhouses of the Department of Plant Science, University of Manitoba.
Please make hard copies as you wish.
Thank you,
p.s. I am on parental leave for the next 8 months. Please record and let me know of errors, admissions and improvements for when I can back!

Subject: Graduate student association thinking about calling a study group weekly for graduate students
Hey Martha
Would you mind sending out an email to every graduate student in our department about having a study group weekly in this term? Since several PhD students and some Master students will graduate or have their candidacy exams in this year , we thought that it is nice to gather some students who are interested in and devote certain time on preparing their theses or their candidacy exams or whatever they feel need to study. Whoever will be interested could email me liny3457(a)myumanitoba.ca<mailto:liny3457@myumanitoba.ca> or show up on the first study meeting (6-8 pm on Thursday, Jan 15, 2015 at the plant science lunch room). And from there, we could discuss future weekly studying time. There is a potential chance to have another morning study time (9-11 am) during weekday.
thanks
yang
