Administration over the UB Shale Institute (Shale Resources and Society Institute)
WHERE: UB North Campus - Center For Tomorrow Building - Near Flint Rd. Entrance off Maple Rd - Directions
WHEN: Tuesday October 2nd
at 3:00 pm
WHY: Since
the UB Shale Institute issued its first report in May, significant

information about the Shale Institute. Despite a September 27
deadline, no information has been made public.
