The symbionts are the sma// bright specks radfatmg outward along the host spines, David Caron REPORT OF THE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE As the MBL engaged in institution-wide strategic planning during this past year as described by Dr. Speck earlier in this report, 2002 was a pivotal year for Development efforts. Moving forward after our spectacularly successful Discovery Campaign with new research and educational pro- grams now in place, we turned our attention to broadening our outreach and education activities through a series of events and communications. Last summer, we held an enjoyable and informative Day of Science attended by 92 guests from nearby communities that included presentations by MBL scientists and lab tours. The Council of Visitors meeting drew 80 friends from across the country to learn about Modem Molecular Approaches to Global Infectious Diseases and to tour the totally refurbished suite of laboratories for the newly established research program in this area. As in past years, our summer lectures and childrens' programs in Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard spread the word about the MBL. We branched out in 2002 and held our first-ever alumni reception in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, attended by 65 course alumni and faculty, MBL Corporation Members, and friends of the Lab. And, turning to the Internet, Development information is now featured on MBL's web site so we can effectively extend our message to a world-wide community. In 2002, MBL raised $4,944,803 in private support. This included $1,350,000 from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation in renewed support for terrestrial forest research and support for a new pilot project designed to index and organize information about organisms that is distributed on the Internet. MBL Council of Visitors member, Robert Shifman, provided an additional gift
