Thomas Hunt Morgan Birthday September 25, 1866

Fellow Students,



There are several common interests that lie at the core of most, if not all, biology majors. Achieving academic excellence, applying for post-undergraduate professional or master's programs, and networking with researchers, professors, and other staff members in various areas of academia just to name a few. The UK chapter of Beta Beta Beta, otherwise known as the Biology Honors Society, offers an opportunity to join fellows students in effort to network with professors, attend resume' boosting events, and get recognized for all of the hard work you've put in thus far. I invite you to join us for our first meeting of the semester Monday, September 24th at 5:30 in room 116 in the Thomas Morgan Hunt Building. At the meeting we will discuss the objectives of the club, as well as upcoming events, and available leadership opportunities within the club. There's also a good chance free pizza and drinks will be available! Thank you for your time and I hope to see you Monday!



Yours,

Austin Stratton

President of UK Chapter Beta Beta Beta
