From: Peter Chi, GEM Communications Coordinator (pchi at igpp.ucla.edu)

Instructed by the GEM Steering Committee, we now solicit reports from Agency Representatives/National Liaisons and publish these reports in the GEMstone Newsletter before every Summer Workshop. The purpose of publishing the special Agency/Liaison issue in GEMstone is to inform the GEM community about the relevant plans and activities taking place domestically and abroad, facilitating discussions of future collaboration at the upcoming Summer Workshop.

The GEMstone Newsletter, Vol. 27 No. 2, is the first GEMstone dedicated to Agency/Liaison reports. This special issue is attached with this e-mail and can be accessed online at

2. Call for Students and Judges for the GEM Student Poster Competition (SPC)!
------------------------------------------------------------
From: Anthony Saikin, Suzanne Smith (aax75 at wildcats.unh.edu)

The goal of the SPC is to practice and hone presentation and public speaking skills regarding our respective research. Ballots are designed to be feedback based, with comments offering constructive criticism. We strongly encourage everyone to enter. The poster competition (like AGU) is optional. The deadline for signing up is June 18, 11:59 PM (GEM Student Day).

Likewise, we need volunteers to judge and provide feedback to students. If you are interested in judging, please use the link below. Volunteer judges are essential to these awards, and your time dedicated to judging would be very much appreciated by us, The GEM Student Reps, and the GEM student community. Thank you.

To sign up for the poster competition as a JUDGE or STUDENT, please use the following form:

If you submitted to a previous form, we have your submission.

The GEM Student Reps
