Spring 2012 Semester Excitement!


Welcome: This is going to be an action packed semester for Phi Alpha Theta (PAT) as we visit museums, attend conferences, and participate in many other events. Come join the fun.

Field Trips: This semester we're going to visit a couple of interesting museums. First, on February 25 we'll visit the Titanic Exhibit at the San Diego Natural History Museum. On April 17 we're going to take a road trip to Malibu to visit the Getty Villa. The Getty Villa is dedicated to the study of the arts and cultures of ancient Greece, Rome, and Etruria.

Student Research Symposium: We are encouraging all PAT members to submit a paper to present at this SDSU symposium this spring. It's a great opportunity to present your work and to possibly win a cash reward. 

Regional Symposium: We're also encouraging everyone to submit a paper for presentation at the Regional Symposium. It will need to be submitted March 1st to be considered. They also need volunteers to be commentators. The Regional Meeting will be held this year at CSU Fullerton on April 14, 2012. See our events page for more information, or see Dr. Beasley to be considered for volunteer positions.

Additional Fun: We're also planning to setup an information table at the Explore SDSU event and have some more Book Sales in front of Arts & Letters.

Join: We are planning another New Member Initiation on April 20th, so please join us!

Get Involved: It's never too late to get involved in our chapter. See the membership page for more information. Everyone is encouraged to participate in any of our events and attend any meeting; the more the better!

Amidst the fun is sometimes sadness...
