Pulp & Paper Foundation Meeting/Webinar Is This Friday -- Please Join Us

In order to direct as much funding as possible towards student scholarships in this difficult economic time, the Foundation has elected to hold its annual meeting this year in the form of a web-cast ("webinar"). This event will occur this Friday, November 6, from 9:30 - 11 am. Students, faculty, and members will gather in Room 2010, which has been equipped with webcast capabilities. All alumni, friends, and supporters of the PSE program are encouraged to tune in to this webcast by doing the following:
