Proposed Sessions for APS Annual Meeting

2009, Co-sponsored with Graduate Student Committee: Prepare for the Future: Dispersing the Myths & Discovering the Truth About Jobs in Industry.

Current and Past APS Annual Sessions

2008 Minutes. July 26, 2008 At 8:35 pm, the meeting was called to order in Minneapolis. 7 Industry members (m) and 6 non-members (nm) attended the Industry business meeting: Brian Olson (Immed. Past Chair), Lorianne Fought (Chair), Ryan Bounds (Vice-Chair), Aaron Hert (Chair-Elect), Paul Kuhn (m), Bill Dolezal (m), Phil Brune (m), Jennifer Chaky (nm), Roger Kaiser (nm), Clint Kohls (nm), Chris Meador (nm), Katherine Whitten-Buxton (nm), Lili Zhang (nm) Lorianne welcomed the committee members and extended an invitation to non-members to join. Ryan presented the following information to the committee. •Industry / Extension Social. 256 tickets sold for the event to be held at Mill City Museum. This year's event does not conflict with the BASF social. Ryan will continue to pursue funding support from industry for this year's event. • Graduate Student/Industry lunch. 196 people registered for the lunch. Each industry member in attendance should sit with a different group of students. At some point during the lunch all industry folks will be asked to give a very brief introduction (name, company). The emphasis will be on the diversity of jobs within industry. Aaron Hert presented an update on the 2008 New Products & Services session: 8 presentations - 5 fungicide updates, 2 new products, 1 Fungicide Periodic Table update. 2009 Industry-Extension Social was discussed. Aaron agreed to pursue funding for the 2009 event (supporting both the Industry/Extension Social and the Graduate Student/Industry luncheon) earlier so that the funding amount will be known prior to determining the ticket fee for the event. The cost for the ticket may have to be increased to $35-40 to cover costs for the event. Aaron will work with Betty Ford to come up with a suitable venue for the social. Jennifer Chaky volunteered to be chair elect in 2008/2009. Ryan and Aaron volunteered to help Jennifer with an updated contact list for the “New Products and Services” session.
