Past Newsletters & Annual Reports
Through the summer of 2017, MAS published printed newsletters twice per year featuring program highlights and annual reporting. Since then, MAS has expanded its once bi-weekly (now monthly) e-newsletter to include MN STEM research updates, MAS program news, and other feature stories — and to bring this news to a larger audience through our website and social media. The program updates and impact that we used to cover in our bi-annual newsletters can now be found on our website.
