Graduation Lecture & Celebration of All Things Science and Math

You're Invited!

Join us for an evening of inspiration, curiosity, and celebration as we gather for the annual Center for Science and Mathematics Education (CSME) Invited Lecture — an event dedicated to the joy of science and math, the art of teaching and learning, and the wonder of the natural world.

We are thrilled to welcome Andrea Easter-Pilcher, currently serving as the Dean of the College of Science and moving into her new role next year as interim WSU Provost, as this year’s featured speaker, presenting her lecture:

“Transects & Deviations: Paths Tread in International Conservation and Higher Education”

Known for her remarkable ability to connect science with the human experience, Andrea has navigated everything from grizzly bear encounters to academic leadership — and though she’s only used tranquilizers on the bears, she’s been a calming and energizing force for university communities alike.

📅 Date: Thursday, April 17th, 2025
🕖 Time: 7:00 PM
📍 Location: Hurst Center, Weber State University, Ogden Campus

This free public lecture is open to all — educators, students, families, and anyone who loves learning. We invited Andrea not only for her insight and eloquence but to honor her unwavering support of CSME and her advocacy for teachers everywhere.

The evening will begin with a special recognition of our graduating math and science teaching students — rising educators who will soon be shaping classrooms across the region. Celebrate their achievements and meet the next generation of science and math leaders. Please share widely — and come ready to be inspired!
