The Picnic Basket Computing Division Safety Celebration |
|
|
The Computing Division celebrated an outstanding year of working safely with
a picnic on Friday, August 1 at Kuhn Barn. Division Head Vicky White greeted
staff members at the door. "Thank you for working safely this year," she
told each arriving guest. "Let's do it again next year."
The Computing Division has worked for 570 days, or 761,018 person-hours, without an accident or injury serious enough to cause an employee to miss work. Fermilab Director Mike Witherell munched a sandwich. "I love celebrating safety records," Witherell said, between bites. "I congratulate the Computing Division for working safely this year, and I look forward to coming back for another celebration picnic next year." |

Roads & Grounds Summer Student Picnic |
|
|
|
|
With the sun shining and the fragrance of watermelon in the air,
the Fermilab picnic season is here. On Wednesday, July 30, Roads & Grounds
had their annual summer students' picnic in the Fermilab Village. Mike Becker
of Roads&Grounds reports that they had seven summer students and three on-calls
this year. "We had an excellent group," Becker said. "If it weren't for the
summer students, our group wouldn't be able to do all of the things that we need
to do over the summer." From weed whipping to mowing grass to helping plant the
Fermilab logo in front of Wilson Hall, the summer students are an enormous help
to the Roads & Grounds staff. Becker also reported that they had a great picnic
with good food and a nice spot in the shade.

FYI: AIP Bulletin of Science Policy News August 4, 2003 House and Senate Committees Examine DOE Lab Management The House Science Committee's Subcommittee on Energy and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources both held hearings last month on the management structure of the Department of Energy's national laboratories. Witnesses at both hearings agreed that the nature of the relationship between the management of the laboratories and the Department of Energy should be changed. The hearings were held, in part, in response to the Department of Energy announcement to open for competition the management of the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Idaho National Laboratory. read more |
Last chance for summer lecture series
"The Summer Lecture Series allows students to get a fuller understanding of the lab and the physics work done here," said Dianne Engram, manager of the Equal Employment Opportunity Office in Laboratory Services Section. "The lectures have been held for more than a decade. While students are the primary audience, the series is open to everyone."
Series organizer Chandra Bhat, of the Beams Division's Main Injector Department, noted that the audiences have included summer interns, teacher trainees, lab employees, summer students and graduate students. "I've been trying to include new people as speakers to attract a wider audience," Bhat said. "And it's OK to bring lunch with you."
