黃勛蟬聯新英格蘭台學聯會長

同學會長座談聚焦多元互動　臺學聯會長榮膺連任

波士頓經文處教育組提供

　　(Boston Orange) 駐波士頓教育組每年度的新英格蘭地區中華民國(臺灣)同學會會長、副會長新春座談餐會，常是各校留學生代表引頸盼望的重要聚會，今年2月25日中午也不例外，計有來自19所學校、38位代表參加。除了新、舊任會長彼此認識、建立聯繫網路外，在眾望所歸的呼聲中，新英格蘭地區臺灣同學會聯合會（簡稱新英格蘭學聯）會長黃勛高票蟬連，贏得全場的掌聲與支持。

　　會議一開始，教育組黃薳玉組長溫馨關懷留學生與在臺家人的聯繫，傳達教育部關懷留學生在海外的安全與健康，提供經費補助同學辦理裨益身心的活動等，並請我留學生多加利用教育組在臉書上所提供的國內就業資訊、海外求職講座、駐地專題展演及留學生動態，以充實留學生活、建立人脈互動及增進人際和諧。最後並就前總統馬英九先生將於3月5日訪波，在麻省理工學院與留學生座談各項邀請與準備事宜，感謝會長們的全力協助。

　　會中同時舉行新英格蘭學聯會長選舉。與上次三位同學角逐的盛況相較，本次只有現任會長黃勛一人表達續任會長的意願。他在去年還是UMass/Lowell大學部學生，現已踏入同校企管研究所就讀。在政見發表中，除謝謝各校會長及幹部的包容外，也大力邀請研究生加入學聯核心領導，擴大服務範圍。並就過去經驗，預告下年度迎新、送舊、就業講座、專題等活動，把大方向聚焦在美國移民政策與我留學生的就業方向研討，以及建立為臺灣發光的文藝外交平臺方面。

　　在祥和的氛圍和全體同心的默契中，黃勛同學不負眾望，再度勝出。黃勛說，他擔任同學會副會長、會長多年，很樂意在學涯和職涯規畫中，仍有機會為留學生服務。這一任學聯將繼續擴展跨校性活動的面向與深度，讓每個活動有更好的迴響與效果。黃組長也在一片恭喜聲中，強調學聯對我留學生服務的特質和功能，且不具政治性，希望各校同學會支持學聯活動，並頒感謝狀給現任會長、副會長及幹部15人，表揚他們傳承學聯精神，繼續為同學們付出的動力。

　　即將卸任的副會長方曦平，對於在學聯連續兩年在不同崗位上服務，感到收穫良多又依依不捨。曾畢業於哈佛法學院、再度返回哈佛政府學院深造的謝佩芬同學，在這兩年留學期間，擔任哈佛大學同學會會長及學聯副會長，很珍惜這段留學經驗和友誼，讓她常保熱情滿滿，笑容可掬。會中幾位新任的同學會會長們，也不忘在一片新春祝福和分享聲中，藉機請教老練的會長，請他們發表經驗談。

　　最後，黃薳玉組長代表經文處賴銘琪處長致贈紀念品給所有的與會者，期勉大家繼續攜手同行，打造美好的明天。當大家都還意猶未盡地交換心得之際，黃組長於會後勉勵會長們，珍惜新英格蘭學術多元化的豐富，建立團隊合作及求新求變，讓更多人看見臺灣，駐波士頓教育組願意為同學搭起聯繫服務的橋樑，讓人共睹臺灣的新精神和活力。(圖，文:教育組提供)

僑委會透過成功的僑生政策，60餘年來培育超過12萬來自世界各地優秀僑生，每年在臺就讀之僑生人數多達兩萬餘人，為我國及僑居各國培育許多優秀人才。僑生不僅具多語優勢，文化、觀念與我國相近，又兼具在地與國際雙重特質，返回僑居地後如能為臺商企業所用，將有助臺商企業在海外發展，提升產業競爭力。僑委會積極建立僑臺商及畢業僑生接軌的橋樑。歡迎有意返回僑居地發展之優秀僑生、外籍生，以及想赴東南亞國家發展之國內學生踴躍參與。

Governor Baker Declares March “Massachusetts Maple Month”

Governor Baker Declares March “Massachusetts Maple Month”

WESTHAMPTON – March 3, 2017 – Governor Charlie Baker today declared March as “Massachusetts Maple Month” in an effort to support the Commonwealth’s many maple producers and encourage Massachusetts residents to purchase locally-produced maple products. To kick off Maple Month, Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) Commissioner John Lebeaux joined local and agricultural officials at Steve’s Sugar Shack in Westhampton for a ceremonial sugar maple tree tapping. 

“I am proud to recognize Massachusetts’ long-standing tradition of declaring March ‘Maple Month,’ and encourage all residents and visitors to support our local maple syrup producers by purchasing Massachusetts maple products from one of the Commonwealth’s 300 maple producers,” said Governor Charlie Baker.

“Producers throughout the Commonwealth represent an important maple sugaring industry that also supplements the income of many dairy farmers,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito.  “‘Massachusetts Maple Month’ helps connect consumers with their local maple producers, sustain the industry, and encourages important local economic activity.”

Massachusetts is home to approximately 300 maple syrup producers, including many who are open to the public throughout the sugaring season.  Last year more than 77,000 gallons of maple syrup was produced and Massachusetts maple producers’ sales each year contribute more than $6 million to the Commonwealth’s economy.  The maple industry employs over 1,000 workers and Massachusetts sugar makers steward more than 15,000 acres of woodland.

“Producing maple syrup is a sustainable Massachusetts tradition, as maple producers are good stewards of the land,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Matthew Beaton.  “The Baker-Polito Administration supports maple syrup producers throughout the year with state grants, including through the Farm Energy Grant Program and the Farm Viability Program, which have helped maple producers purchase state-of-the-art equipment and technology to advance the production of this natural agricultural product.”

“Visiting a Massachusetts maple operation is a great agri-tourism activity that the whole family can enjoy,” said Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) Commissioner Lebeaux.  “Many sugarhouses serve a delicious breakfast featuring the ‘Taste of Spring’ as well as sell maple products including maple syrup, maple candy and other maple items.  Many also offer sugarhouse open houses and tours. 

“A sure sign of Spring is when the sugar houses are at their busiest producing Massachusetts maple syrup that is second to none,” said State Senator Anne Gobi (D-Spencer), Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture. “I appreciate the hard working men and women who keep this important agricultural industry going and to all who support them by purchasing maple syrup products.”

“It's always great to have Commissioner Lebeaux come out to Western Massachusetts to highlight our great farms and food producers,” said State Representative Peter Kocot (D-Northampton). “I'm a big fan of maple products and my district produces some of the best maple syrup in the country.”

“Recognizing March as Massachusetts Maple Month is a wonderful reason to get out and visit a local sugarhouse, farm stand, farmers market or buy local shop,” said State Senator Adam G. Hinds (D- Pittsfield), Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Tourism, Arts & Cultural Development. “Agri-tourism is a growing, vibrant and important sector of our cultural and farm-based economies. There are almost 70 locations statewide open and available that carry local maple products. This recognition supports their efforts.” 

While March has earned the distinction of Maple Month, tapping in Massachusetts can start as early as late January and continue through April. For the best sugaring, nights must be below freezing and days must be above freezing. Everything from the weather, soil, and genetics of the tree can affect maple syrup flavor.   

The Massachusetts Maple Producers Association (MMPA) will hold its 4^th Annual Maple Weekend March 18 and 19, and will feature open house events at sugarhouses throughout central and western Massachusetts.

Northeastern University's Center for STEM Education to Host Nearly 400 BPS Students for the 71st Annual Citywide/MA Region Vl Science Fair

Northeastern University's Center for STEM Education to Host Nearly 400 BPS Students for the 71st Annual Citywide/MA Region Vl Science Fair

Boston, MA - Friday, March 3, 2017 - Tomorrow, Saturday, March 4, 2017, Boston Public Schools (BPS) will host the 71st annual Citywide/MA Region Vl Science Fair in coordination with Northeastern University's Center for STEM Education. Nearly 400 students from 21 schools will convene at Northeastern University's Cabot Center at 400 Huntington Avenue in Boston to showcase their STEM (Science, Technology Engineering, and Math) projects between 1:30 and 3:00 p.m. "Opportunities with our valued, local university partners like Northeastern University provide an invaluable experience that helps ensure our students are prepared for the jobs of tomorrow," said Mayor Martin J. Walsh. "It is incredible to see students gain education from their research, while also pursuing the opportunity to enhance their interpersonal and presentation skills." Middle and high school students will represent approximately 300 exhibits, as they learn important science and engineering concepts and also how scientists and engineers investigate and make sense of the world. "The Committee is proud of our students for their participation in the citywide science fair," said School Committee Chairperson Michael O'Neill. "Each year, we continue to see fascinating projects that truly show our students' full potential." After competing in their school level fairs, students share their top-rated exhibits at the BPS Citywide/MA Region VI Science Fair, at which they demonstrate and celebrate their accomplishments in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math). "Our students are connecting their creativity and innovation with exhibits that make science relevant to their lives," said Superintendent Tommy Chang. "The science fair is key to providing students an opportunity to showcase their work and be celebrated for their dedication." Competing students set up their exhibits on Friday, March 3rd and go through the safety-check process. The public is invited to the Cabot Center to view the exhibits on Saturday, March 4, 2017, from 1:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. "I am always amazed to see the creative projects and questions that students propose," said John Tobin, vice pres­ident of city and com­mu­nity affairs for Northeastern University. "The Citywide Science Fair will be the step some students need to advance their potential and find their passion." At the 2016 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Phoenix, AZ, James Magnasco, from East Boston High School, received the third-place award of $1,000 in biomedical engineering for his research titled: Utilizing Artificial Muscles to Enhance the Human Body. "The Science Fair has a great environment that allows participants to get a glimpse of what it's really like to be a scientist and have a curious mind," said last year's Citywide Science Fair winner, Chelsey Skeete. "Science is a collaborative effort and I highly recommend students pursue that experience through the Fair." Another student, Nadine Han, was one of the 15 young women nationwide, and the only middle school student selected from all of Massachusetts, to compete in the Broadcom MASTERS (Math, Applied Science, Technology and Engineering for Rising Stars) Competition in Washington, DC. The Science Fair awards ceremony will take place on Thursday, March 9th, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. at the Bruce C. Bolling Building in the School Committee Chambers, located at 2300 Washington Street in Roxbury. Light refreshments will be provided beginning at 5:30 p.m. Award winners and their families are invited to attend.
