March 16, Professor Bonnie Steinbock of the Department of Philosophy and the College s Public Policy faculty will address policy issues in the human cloning debate. For those of you who were unable to attend the unveiling of David Bayley s distinguished professor portrait, it is now hanging in its permanent spot in the President s Reading Room on the 2 nd floor of the library on the uptown campus. If you re in the library you might want to stop by to see it. It provides for quarterly data collection from samples of arrestees at each of about 35 sites nationwide, including anonymous interviews and drug tests. Rob will serve as the Capital District site director, and Jennifer will serve as the site coordinator.
Current plans call for data collection to begin in the spring.
