College of Biological Sciences

The CBS Student Board welcomes students, faculty, staff and supporters to the March for Science Minnesota on April 22, 2017. The Student Board will facilitate pre-march meet up points on the East Bank campus (for those who would like to travel together via light-rail to the march) and in St. Paul near the march starting point. The board's goal is to provide a space for University of Minnesota scientists and science supporters to march alongside peers and colleagues, sending a message that they value "robustly funded and publicly communicated science as a pillar of human freedom and prosperity."

March for Science

April 22 | 10 a.m.-2 p.m.

Find more information at the CBS Student Board Facebook event page. 

Participants are invited to meet on the East Bank and travel together to the march on the train or at Western Sculpture Park. The entire group will walk from the park to Cathedral Park Hill where the march starts.
