What's New?

See article on Revisions to the Conflict of Interest Regulations.

David Khan did a great interview with KVII-TV, Amarillo's ABC affiliate.  WT receives a great benefit from faculty members' willingness to be interviewed. See the video and text of the interview here.

Hats off to Dr. Keith Price for being featured in an article in the February 2012 issue of American Jails - The Magazine of the American Jail Association. The article discusses the WTAMU criminal justice curriculum which prepares students to meet the challenges presented by Latin American offenders and is a product of our Go Global initiatives in Mexico.

See this great article in the Canyon News about Dr. David Khan's cancer research!

Adam Holman, a mechanical engineer with WT's Alternative Energy Institute, was involved in the testing and the first two full certifications and consumer labels to the Bergey Windpower Excel 10 and the Southwest Windpower Skystream 3.7. The Small Wind Certification Council reports: "The full certification of two turbine models is a major leap forward in establishing consistent consumer ratings and aiding incentive programs with determining eligibility." These certifications should "help small wind turbines gain mainstream acceptance."

Congratulations to WT graduate students Kenneth Chapin and Garrett Hughes for the publication of aritcles in The Journal of Arachnology. Chapin wrote: "Suitability of a Subcuticular Permanent Marking Technique for Scorpions," and Hughes wrote: "Morphological Analysis of Montane Scorpions of the Genus Vaejovis (Scorpiones: Vaejovidae)in Arizona With Revised Diagnoses and Description of a New Species." Dr. David Sissom served as advisor to both students.
