[Biology Undergraduate List]

Dear Colleagues,
Please share the attached flyer with your undergrad students, especially 
non-traditional students (i.e., first generation and/or students from 
populations that are underrepresented in higher education).

The California Forum for Diversity is a full day of workshops and 
informative presentations, and is a fantastic opportunity for  students  
to learn more about graduate opportunities. Additionally,  dozens of 
recruiters from all over the country will be on hand to meet with 
students and share information about graduate programs. A list of 
participating colleges and universities can be viewed at the Forum's 
site: 
/http://www.ucop.edu/acadadv/forum-for-diversity/recruiters/institutions.htm
/
The event takes place on *Saturday, April 5th* on the campus of UC Irvine.

The UCSB Graduate Division Office of Diversity, Recruitment, and 
Retention will be providing complimentary transportation on the day of 
the event, but students must  *_pre-register _no later than Monday, 
March 31st.* Please see the attached flyer for registration site 
information and more details.

Attendance at the Diversity Forum and transportation to and from UCSB is 
free for all currently enrolled UCSB students.
Space is limited, however, so please encourage interested students to 
register as soon as possible.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful opportunity with your students.

Best,
Zia Isola
