Events
Monthly meetings
We meet every month in Foran Hall, 3rd floor conference room.
Food and drinks are always available for this monthly social gathering. Everyone is welcome to these
meetings. Please come join us whenever you can! Specific dates are communicated via email.
Bowling Night
Once or twice a year, we organize a trip to a local bowling
alley for a little competitive fun. Past trips have been a lot of fun and a great way to get to know
others outside of the typical department setting.
Movie Night
We generally try to schedule a couple of movie nights every year.
We'll pick a movie theme (e.g., Christmas, Horror (Halloween), Comedy, etc.) and rent a DVD and watch on
the big screen.
Holiday Party - December
Every year, prior to the holiday break, we schedule a party to celebrate
the end of the term and the end of the year. Good food, good drink and good friends summarize this yearly treat.
Ski Trip
Once a year, generally when it's cold, we try to take a group of
both experienced and non-experienced skiers up to the slopes for a day of outdoor fun. It is an event not to be
missed. As a first time Brazilian skier said, "Eu estava muito frio." We don't know what this actually means,
but he was smiling when he said it and it really looked like he had fun.
Ag Field Day - Last Saturday in April
A wonderful day spent outside, on campus, with all the various departments
and clubs strutting their stuff. Food and fun abound. CROPS has a table to sell herbs and tomatoes and peppers...to
quote a passer-by, "Rockin' good times."
Rootstock - June
End of the Year Party at Passion Puddle for all of Plant Biology!
In June 2006, CROPS has awarded Dr. Maliga an Outstanding Professor award. Read more about it.
