I have a few minor edits, plus the idea to clarify our chapter's geographic scope:<BR/><BR/>The Central California Chapter of the Society for Conservation Biology provides a forum for exchange of ideas between local conservation biologists, students, and advocates in the southern San Francisco Bay and Monterey Bay Areas. The Chapter strives to make links between local conservation organizations, practitioners and students to promote greater knowledge and understanding of local conservation initiatives and research and to develop the necessary skills for successful conservation efforts.David Z.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02150766462414684167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2004172884653043231.post-25442585084120560392007-11-18T20:56:00.000-08:002007-11-18T20:56:00.000-08:00My one concern about the mission statement is that...My one concern about the mission statement is that it is too long. Typically a mission statement should be concise and not longer than a couple of sentences. Part of the drafted mission statement is more description of who we are rather than the mission of the group. So that being said, I recommend that it be shortened to something like:<BR/><BR/>The Central California Chapter of the Society for Conservation Biology provides a forum for exchange of ideas between local conservation biologists, students, and advocates in Central California. The CCCSCB strives to make links between local conservation organizations, practitioners and students to promote greater knowledge and understanding of local conservation initiatives and develop the necessary skills for successful conservation efforts.Philippehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14574084171510845110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2004172884653043231.post-54827080071679058592007-11-15T11:32:00.000-08:002007-11-15T11:32:00.000-08:00Looks good.
