<p class="MsoNormal">The annual OH Natural History Conference is next Saturday, 25 Feb, at the Ohio History Center in Columbus. Call for presentations and posters, as well as registration are open. It is great conference that brings together people in academia,
agencies, consultants etc. Students play an important role, so <b>please submit abstracts by tomorrow (15 FEB)</b>.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Student registration is $15, and a group of graduate students and faculty will carpool there; it would be great to have a count of how many people would like to attend (even if not submitting abstracts) so we can plan accordingly (1 or
2 BIOS vans). OU needs to increase its presence at these conferences; plus, it is a great networking opportunity.<o:p></o:p></p>
