AWG Trivia Fundraiser

Have you ever wanted to beat your committee members in a trivia contest? Have you ever wanted to dazzle your colleagues with your command of useless knowledge? Do you want to raise money for AWG scholarships? Well, now is your chance! AWG has organized a Geoscience Department trivia session hosted by none other than resident trivia master Mr. Ben Barnes. Everyone, undergrad, grad, post-docs, and faculty are welcome and encouraged to participate!

 

The date is Nov. 17th at 7pm. The place is Ben Barnes’ zoom room (link will follow after signing up).

 

There is a $5 per person charge to participate (payable to Adam-Benfield-3 via Venmo). All proceeds are put towards AWG field camp scholarships. To sign up, please fill out this google sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16Uf4lvAOcvaFRxTz-FgH3-Bin8bJLk3xuxLj0iAA9z8/edit?usp=sharing

You can self-organize into your own teams or throw caution to the wind and be randomly assigned a team. Your choice! Please limit team sizes to 6-7 people to make the relative brain power fair to everyone.

New T-Shirts!

The Association for Women Geoscientists is happy to announce the launch of our BRAND NEW t-shirt designs for 2019 as part of our annual fundraiser for the AWG field camp scholarship. For the past few years AWG has been able to provide financial support for women and under-represented minority students attending Penn State’s field camp. This year we are excited to say that the national AWG chapter has agreed to match our fundraising up to $1,000 – which means that when you purchase a shirt, or a sticker, your money is doubled! See the attached flyer for all your swag options.
 
You can purchase your AWG swag before all department colloquia this semester, at AWG hosted events, or at any time if you contact Troy Ferland (tmf30@psu.edu), Joanmarie Del Vecchio (joanmarie@psu.edu), or any of your friendly AWG members roaming the halls of Deike. We will soon be re-launching our Etsy store so that friends far and wide can order swag (stay tuned), and we have exciting fundraising events like art classes in the pipeline for the spring.
