ASA Alumnus in Miss USA Pageant
Saturday, April 10, 2004 Filed in: Alumni News

The pageant will air on NBC Monday night starting at 9:00PM Eastern Daylight Time. A special Miss USA FearFactor will be on right before that, but I don't believe they've announced which women have been chosen to participate.
Watch and support your fellow Space Camper! Also, during the pageant, make sure you visit the Miss USA website and vote for Miss New Mexico for the "Miss Photogenic Award!" The online votes will be tallied and announced at the end of the competition. So be sure to go vote!
And to find out just how she got involved in such a crazy event, see here.
Update: Jenna's made it into the top 15!
Update:And she was just robbed, not making it into the top 10. Tough break indeed!
We Have a New Board

Well, the wait
is finally over. The Alabama Space Science Exhibit
Commission has new members.
The article, including the list of the Board members, can be found here.
Personally, I'm disappointed that at least one of a couple of individuals I had in mind weren't appointed.
It really just looks like an uninspired list of bureaucrats and businessmen. Essential, to be sure, but the Alabama Space Science Exhibit Commission surely shouldn't be composed only of members such as these.
Hopefully, in time, they will prove me wrong. And if not, nine members' terms will expire next year, and a second chance will be granted.

Alabama Governor
Bob Riley is expected to announce the new board for
the Space & Rocket Center this week, as
this article states.
I suppose that would mean today or tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see.
