Welcome to the May Edition of Scire!  

Spring has sprung and with this

Beautiful birds, bees and butterflies come,

Students finish classes and experience academic freedom.

The College sends its congratulations to the 420 undergraduate and graduate students who graduate May 11, 2002! With every "send off" of our now new alumni, anticipation and excitement grow as we in the Sciences look forward to the next round of entrants. Enrolling/graduating is a continuing cycle at Old Dominion University. It is this continuous change of unknown faces who soon become a treasure-trove of new energy, intellect and challenge that makes being a part of this institution and the learning process so very rewarding.

We hope you enjoy this edition of Scire as we mesh the old with the new.
