Hello biologists,
It's looking like Biology Week is most viable as our first Workgroup Week,
thanks to volunteering by Supten S., John Dennehy, and Anthony Sebastian.
Here's the Biology Week homepage:
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Biology_Workgroup/Workgroup_Week
For future reference, note that that page is reachable from both the Biology
Workgroup homepage, as well as the Workgroup Weeks homepage.
In order to give journals, newsletters, and others adequate lead time to
announce Biology Week, the week itself should take place 6-8 weeks from the
time we actually send the announcements out. I would have preferred that it
take place this summer, but two weeks from right now is mid-July, and we
probably won't be able to do the promotional work for another few weeks,
which would put 8 weeks away in August--and August is no good, because it's
vacation time for too many people. That puts us into September.
Sooo...I'm thinking Sept. 7-13. Does that sound doable? Too close to the
beginning of the semester? (Would the next week be better?) If you have
any objections, suggestions, cogitations, etc., please let me know now!
Please discuss here: http://tinyurl.com/6jk6u7
Otherwise, I'll make a general announcement of this date by Friday.
Also, bear in mind we will need a Biology Week coordinator--a bio editor.
I'll work with this person and try to make it as painless as possible.
