Information on Past Town Meetings


Last fall/winter, NSF held a number of ‘town meetings’ across the country that provided an opportunity for NSF staff to interact with the community, answer questions, listen to concerns, observations, and suggestions, and meet one-on-one with interested individuals. Seven town meetings provided crucial input to NSF and to the committee’s deliberations and the development of their recommendations:

    Boston, Massachusetts - 29 September 2005
            Boston University
    Minneapolis, Minnesota - 7 October 2005
            University of Minnesota
    Washington, DC - 14 October 2005
            AAS, held at the Carnegie Institution
    Clemson, South Carolina – 15 October 2005
            Clemson University
    Boulder, Colorado – 24 October 2005
            University of Colorado/High Altitude Observatory
