Welcome Back, Alumni!
Our Chapter
Now in our 40th year as a student chapter of the American Meteorological Society, MU-AMS is proud to claim hundreds of alumni in a vast network around the globe. In a field where connections are paramount, we publish an alumni newsletter to encourage a tighter-knit community of Millersville meteorology students past and present.

The MU Department of Earth Sciences has begun an initiative to help defray the rising cost of the annual AMS meeting. As class size swells, it remains imperative to continue to provide the opportunity for students to attend and present at the AMS Annual Meeting.
Recent Student Activities
27th Annual Russell L. DeSouza Banquet
On April 24th, we hosted our 27th Annual Russell L. DeSouza Banquet at the Country Barn Farm Market in Lancaster! The night was filled with tons of excitement, including an amazing presentation from our keynote speaker John Banghoff, celebrating our graduating senior class, welcoming in our newly elected officers for the 2026-2027 school year, and much more. Thank you for another great year for the AMS Chapter!
Fall Picnic
Lastly, the annual Met-Mentor Picnic at Freedom Memorial Park offered a beautiful Sunday evening with warm temperatures and sunny skies for our concluding social event of the program. President Bob Capella and Treasurer Dom Hernandez cooked up fresh burgers, hot dogs, and chicken while members walked, talked, or tossed around footballs and frisbees. It was a fantastic time for everyone who attended and we thank everyone who helped make it a success.
SEAR-MAR Preparation
As for future events, we are preparing to host the University of Wyoming King Air Research Aircraft during the Student Experience in Airborne Research - Mid-Atlantic Region (SEAR-MAR), a NSF sponsored educational deployment. Here, Millersville University students and faculty collaborate with University of Wyoming leads to develop flight plans and discuss operations.
