From the MSA Communications Committee: Mineralogy has diverse applications and uses that we, the MSA Communications Committee, want to highlight for the public. Whether your lab is doing interesting research, you have exciting stories from the field to share, you have just published a new paper, you work in a cool industry field, or you have any community outreach you would like to highlight, we would love for you to share with us. We are looking for submissions for our #MineralMonday campaign, and we need you. Submit a short write up of 200 – 300 words – it’s easy to do. Submit a photo (or 2, 3…) too! The committee will add appropriate #hashtags, and line it up for publishing on our social media outlets (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter, and Bluesky – now linked to Mastodon). If you wish, you may submit your post and images to our google form at: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSchicZymxWJmmBE5aaQHEHE3VV1N3oqzl2jqtVY1q4saoCdQA/viewform Or submit directly to Andrea Koziol at Akoziol1@udayton.edu. In Fall 2025, we will look at which post has been the most popular and will reward its author with a free RIMG volume of their choice! We hope you will consider submitting and sharing what you do with our mineral-loving public so we can spread the word about career paths and research in our vibrant community. Please contact Andrea Koziol ( akoziol1@udayton.edu) if you have any questions. Thanking you in advance, Andrea Koziol MSA Social Media Liaison and chair of the Communications Committee -- ************************************************************ Dr. Andrea Koziol, emerita Dept. of Earth and Environmental Geosciences 300 College Park Dayton OH 45469-2364 akoziol1@udayton.edu *************************************************************
