Greetings Past and Prospective TAMU Entomology Open House Participants!!

TAMU Dept of Entomology will hold their 37th(!) annual 'open house' on January 11th, 2025 starting at 9 a.m. and continuing all day.

All are cordially invited, but space can be a bit limited, especially within the collection room itself, so the general recommendation is to invite semi-serious amateurs on up.

Looks like everything will be similar to past events.
