2005 Gilbert Club meeting

2005年吉尔伯特俱乐部会议知识分子的美德吉尔伯特俱乐部已满足每年在伯克利秋季美国地球物理联盟自1983年以来。它已经从最初的7个参与者发展到2004年的近200个，并且已经成为新思想，社区倡议，可持续沟通和建立合议制的论坛。地貌学在这20年里迅速发展，吉尔伯特俱乐部为这一演变做出了贡献。会议通常由三个发言者组成，然后在一天结束时弹出任何与会者的简短报告。到目前为止，我们一直是完全独立于任何组织，并通过费用支付一天（和晚上）的会议费用。我们的成本已经增长，这一建议要求资金，以减少我们必须收取与会者的费用。由于我们的许多参与者都是学生，我们认为这种支持是特别合适和必要的。会议完全依靠伯克利研究生的志愿者努力，但房间和车辆租赁，膳食和一些旅行的费用必须由参与者支付。在这里，我们要求7200美元的参与者费用，这样我们就可以收取15美元的白天和晚上的参与和10美元的一天。更广泛的影响代表不足的个人已被邀请在过去，特别是在新的和新兴的地貌学家群体。我们积极寻找名字和跟踪进度，以便在个人准备好进行实质性演讲时发出演讲者邀请。吉尔伯特俱乐部是公开的广告，欢迎任何人参加。

2005 Gilbert Club meetingIntellectual meritThe Gilbert Club has met every year in Berkeley after the Fall AmericanGeophysical Union since 1983. It has grown from the original 7 participants to, in 2004,nearly 200, and has been a forum for new ideas, community initiatives, sustainedcommunication, and the building of collegiality. Geomorphology has expanded rapidlyin this 20-year period, and the Gilbert Club has contributed to that evolution. Themeeting consists typically of three speakers followed at the end of the day with pop-upsof short reports by any attendee. Until now we have always been completely independentof any organization, and covered costs of the one-day (and evening) meeting through afee. Our costs have grown and this proposal requests funds to reduce the fee we mustcharge the attendees. Because so many of our participants are students, we feel thissupport is particularly appropriate and needed.The meeting is run entirely on volunteer efforts of Berkeley graduate students, butcosts for room and vehicle rentals, meals, and some travel must be covered by a charge tothe participant. Here we request $7200 in participant costs, such that we can charge $15for day and evening participation and $10 just for the day.Broader ImpactsUnder-represented individuals have been invited in the past and are particularlysought among the new and emerging group of geomorphologists. We actively seeknames and track progress in order to make speaker invitations when individuals are readyto give a substantial presentation. Gilbert Club is openly advertised and anyone iswelcome to participate.
