10th Annual Soil and Water Science Research Forum
The 10th Annual Soil and Water Science Research Forum is scheduled for September 11, 2009, in Gainesville, Florida.  This year's keynote speaker is Dr. Clifford S. Snyder. The forum is designed to bring together representatives from state and federal agencies, private industry, faculty and graduate students, and prospective students interested in soil and water science.  We look forward to your participation in the forum.  If you are planning to attend, please register on line.  For additional information, contact Andy Ogram or Susan Curry.

Spring Newsletter Now Available
The Spring issue of our Myakka newsletter is now available! In this issue we highlight Research Innovations in soil, water, and environmental science.

COURSE PREFIX CHANGE EFFECTIVE FALL 2009!
Please note that all Soil and Water Science course prefixes will be changing from "SOS" to "SWS." This is a permanent change which more accurately reflects our equal emphasis on both soil and water sciences as academic disciplines. Students and faculty will need to use the new "SWS" prefix beginning with Fall Advance Registration. The four-digit numerical code for each course will remain unchanged.
