| 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. |
