Hey everyone, here are the minutes from our meeting on 4/11

Treasurer’s Report
$ 698.44

Speaker
Today we had Dr. Tanya Gressley, the newest faculty member in the Department of Animal and Food Science as our speaker. She spoke about her research as a masters, doctoral, and post-doctoral student at University of Maryland and University of Wisconsin. Here at Delaware, she hopes to do research on cow clock genes. She will start teaching Dairy Production in spring 2008, and will either teach lactational physiology or a sophomore level physiology class in 2009.

Ag Day T-Shirts
So here’s the deal with the t-shirts, they are done, however, through a case of untraceable miscommunication, they were printed backwards. I will attach a copy of what the shirt looks like. The sheep will be on the front, and the words across the back. Email me tonight with your opinion. If the majority of people want a reprinting of the shirt correctly, I have to call Taylor’s Ink tomorrow morning. There will be an additional $3 charge/shirt so that he can recup his costs. Think about this. If the shirts will be distributed as is, the cost will be $11.50 (since there are two large designs). Payment would preferably be by check, made out to Animal Science Club.

Banquet
Due to time constraints, we have made an executive decision to have our banquet at Kate’s. If everything goes as planned, the banquet will be on Wednesday, May 16th (the last day of classes), starting at 5:30. More details will come.
