ALPHA PHI OMEGA COLLECTING BOOKS FOR ELEMENTARY
SCHOOL
There is a book drive being held for Riverside Elementary School in
Oneonta. Alpha Phi Omega is running the drive and will be collecting
books and monetary donations until the end of the elementary school year
in June. We would appreciate any donations of books that would be
appropriate for children in Kindergarten -sixth grade. The Riverside
School is trying to encourage the children to pursue reading more. Some
children are reading one-on-one with volunteers. Providing them with
more possibilities for reading will help children find subjects they
want to read, making reading more enjoyable to them. There is currently
a drop box in the Instructional Support Center (IRC-120C). We will also
be placing drop boxes in the Human Ecology building and hopefully
Fitzelle. If you cannot make it to these buildings to leave your
donations, or if you have any questions, you can phone Raven Wright
at x6865. Please help us help them! Thank you.

COMMITTEE ON RESEARCH SEEKING APPLICATIONS FOR
GRANTS
The Committee on Research is soliciting applications for the Student
Research Grant Program for Research and Creative Activity. Individual
awards will be limited to a maximum of $1,500. Allowable budget items
might include art supplies or film, computer tapes or disks, minor
pieces of laboratory equipment, chemicals, specimens, expenses for
reproducing materials, and travel expenses to museums, libraries,
research sites, or professional conferences, as they are necessary to
the student's participation in the project. Awards will not be given for
equipment that can be met by other campus resources. Proposals, which
bring students together with new faculty members, are especially
encouraged. Projects which are novel, unique, and initiated primarily by
students have priority over those which are largely continuations of
ongoing work previously funded by the committee, although the latter is
recognized to have significant value and will be considered. The
deadline for proposals is Monday, March 12, at noon (27 Bacon Hall). For
further information, contact any member of the Committee: Daniel Payne ( paynedg@oneonta.edu)

campuses throughout New York for the trip to the State Legislature,
e-mail Nancy at cannonns@oneonta.edu and provide her with your name,

Ashok Kumar Malhotra, Philosophy, participated in the East West Center International Conference on “Building an Asia Pacific Community for Sustainable Development,” which was held from December 6-12, 2006 in Hanoi, Vietnam. More than 550 scholars representing diverse disciplines and 37 different countries participated in the conference. Malhotra presented a paper on “Towards A Peaceful World Order Through Education and Yoga.” In his talk, he emphasized the notion that if "each one could teach one," we could solve the problem of illiteracy in the world. Moreover, while education could offer outside connection and peace, practice of yoga would offer inner connection and contentment.
