| Groundbreaking Ceremony June 5, 2009 |
On
Friday, I joined members of the Board of Regents, Dean Brenda Claiborne
of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. Alejandro Aceves, the
distinguished former chair of the Department of Mathematics and
Statistics and others in breaking ground for UNM's new Science and
Mathematics Learning Center.
Once completed, this
innovative new facility will provide interactive, state-of-the-art
classroom facilities and teaching laboratories to
engage future UNM freshmen in mathematics and science courses taught by
faculty in the Departments of Biology, Chemistry and Chemical Biology,
Earth and Planetary Sciences and Mathematics and Statistics. These Arts
and Sciences departments consistently comprise the highest enrollments
for undergraduates within the University.
Many thanks for the generosity and forward thinking by taxpayers of the
State of New Mexico, the Bank of America and all the donors who are
making this project possible. |
