As a society, we are standing with The Duke Herbarium and request that Duke University reconsider the decision to divest their herbarium. We ask that you also consider adding your support by signing this petition (https://www.change.org/p/urge-duke-university-to-reconsider-closing-their-herbarium) organized by AIBS, iDigBio, NSCA, and SPNHC with the support of ASPT, ABLS, BSA, and SHC.

Dear ASPT Members,
After thoughtful discussion over the past two years, the ASPT Council has decided to expand the Mixer to include food and drinks and to combine it with an Awards Presentation, rather than having a formal banquet. Prior to the Mixer, we will hold a Business Meeting, followed by the Incoming President’s Address open to the public, as we did last year. Following the talk, we will have the Mixer with heavy hors d’oeuvres and a cashless bar (conference drink tickets and credit cards will be accepted). Tickets are priced at $25/professional member and $5/per student member. After everyone has had a chance to get a drink and a plate of food, and to briefly visit with new and old friends, we will have the Awards Presentation so we can congratulate and celebrate our winners. We understand that this is a big change for many of us, but we are confident that we will all enjoy it as much as we have our past events. Please join us!
Best regards,
ASPT Council
