Dear Birck graduate students, The Nanotechnology Student Advisory Council (NSAC) will be holding its annual Elections and Ice Cream this Thursday, June 21st at 1 P.M. in the Birck Kitchen. If you would like to get more involved in the Nanotechnology community here at Purdue or have ideas about how to improve student life here at Birck, consider joining one of our committees! NSAC committees help organize events such as Game Night, Hot Cocoa Breaks, and National Lab Visits, among other activities that help enrich life at Birck. NSAC Committees: Social and Hospitality Research Awareness Professional Development Policies and Procedures About NSAC: NSAC is an organization of graduate students at Purdue University who are interested in nanotechnology research. Our membership includes all Birck Nanotechnology Center (BNC) graduate student residents, but we encourage others to join. Our goal is to promote collaboration, enhance research awareness, and facilitate communication among faculty, staff, and students. To meet this goal, we plan regular social events, host lab open houses, and collaborate with the staff to organize the Equipment & Process Expert (Super-User) Program. We also have student volunteers that serve on the Policies and Procedures Committee for BNC. http://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/nanotechnology/resources/nsac/index.php. See you there!
