Dave Gammon, associate professor in biology, recently gave an oral presentation in Nova Scotia at the joint research meetings for the Wilson Ornithological Society, Society of Canadian Ornithologists, and Association of Field Ornithologists. 

This reception is for visiting biology alumni, faculty and students. Alumni do not need to have attended the career panel to attend the reception. Co-hosted by the Department of Biology and Tri-Beta Biology Honors Society.

A panel of four biology alumni will share insights into how their career paths have developed and answer questions about their respective professions. Alumni not on the panel are encouraged to attend and join in the general discussion. Hosted by Tri-Beta Biology Honors Society.

For each of the past five years, Associate Professor Dave Gammon has conducted an annual bird count in the Elon University Forest, and his most recent census indicates plenty of good news for those with avian DNA.

Astrophysicist and author Neil deGrasse Tyson headlined Spring Convocation on April 2, 2015, with a passionate defense of science, an analysis of what drives people to accomplish great feats, and advice to students for being lifelong learners.
