HI folks,
To clarify with regard to the REU site (new information since last time Lindsey and I spoke), we have been told that we could hear any time between late December and late March about the REU site.  Once they told us this we decided to move forward advertising and recruiting, but if we have not heard definitively about funding by the time applications are due and need to be reviewed we will defer the start of the program for a year. 
 
It's a tough spot to be in.  Two of the three possible outcomes of the proposal (rejection or being funded too late in the year) would lead to no site program in 2016, but there is still a reasonable chance that the third possibility (being funded before early February) will happen so we have to move forward.  It was a good proposal, after all.
 
HBRF is submitting an RAHSS, and we have the two REUs in the LTER budget.  One is going to the veg crew and the other is yet to be decided.

Subject: [HubbardBrookCOS] NSF Supplements - Due Dec 1

Dear COS,

We are wondering who else is applying for NSF REU, RET, ROA, or RAHSS supplements with their NSF grants.  It is my understanding that we will not have a site REU next summer, but we may still have a critical mass of REU’s to build a community, which may be useful to say in our supplement proposals.  It will also be useful to apply for or plan space at PVF, if this space will even be available?

 

We are considering:

ISE:  1 REU, 1 RET and maybe 1 ROA

Waterviz EAGER: 2 REUs and 1 RET

 

Best,

 

Lindsey (on behalf of the ISE and Waterviz Teams)
