NSFT Awards follow-up quickie

This is an update on the NSTF awards mentioned in a post a few weeks ago.

One of the School's finalists won, and she just happens to be my research supervisor too. Congratulations Mary! She won in the category: Eskom Award for Research Capacity Development over the last 5-10 years. The award was in recognition for her contribution to the training of students and her own innovative work on grasslands and forests.

No word yet on whether Neville won in his category. He sent out the email about Mary's award. We hope to hear positive feedback soon.

I'll be watching the NSTF Awards page for the official list of 2009 winners.
