CANCELLED: Spring 2013 Chapter Meeting at Northeastern

 In light of Northeastern University's cancellation of two campus events scheduled for tomorrow, as well as the ongoing shelter-in-place order and T shutdown, we are cancelling tomorrow's chapter meeting of the AMS-NE.

I would like to thank Hilary Poriss and Matthew McDonald at Northeastern for their help and assistance in planning this meeting. I also send my regrets to our presenters, but we hope to find some way to ameliorate this situation in the Fall. Please stay tuned.

And lastly, many thanks to the Program Committee and Chairperson Jacquelyn Sholes for putting together a wonderful program.

This measure may be unnecessary, but I would rather play it safe, given the open-ended nature of the situation at present.

Thank you all, and I look forward to seeing you at U Mass Amherst on September 28th, when hopefully we are back to more peaceful times here in Boston.
Stay safe,
Rebecca Marchand
AMS-NE President
