Dear friends of NCSE,

NCSE is in the pages of Science with a description of a major national
survey of teachers on climate science education. A Mississippi
legislator is candid about the motivation of his antiscience
legislation. New science standards are rejected in Idaho, and their
treatment of evolution and climate change may be the reason.
Antiscience bills appear in Mississippi but disappear in South Dakota.
And a reminder about Darwin Day.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A Darwin Day resolution in Arizona. The latest on South Dakota's
antiscience bill. Congratulations to Sean B. Carroll. And a reminder
about Darwin Day.

Dear friends of NCSE,

NCSE is moving! A new antiscience bill in South Dakota. A bill in Iowa
to undo the state's adoption of the NGSS. A second antiscience bill in
Oklahoma. And a reminder about Darwin Day.

Dear friends of NCSE,

Antievolution legislation in Oklahoma. Public opinion on climate
change and evolution addressed in Science and Engineering Indicators
2016. Plus a reminder about Darwin Day.

Dear friends of NCSE,

The Evolution Video Competition returns. Darwin Day 2016 is on its
way. NCSE is seeking a full-time summer intern. And there is a
proposal to extend summer vacation in Kentucky for the sake of
creationism.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A new poll on public opinion on climate change. A preview of Eugenie
C. Scott's Evolution vs. Creationism. A new paper from NCSE’s Minda
Berbeco and Mark McCaffrey. And a voice for evolution from the
Rabbinical Assembly.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A pair of bills in Florida have evolution and climate change in their
sights. Zack Kopplin interviews a former employee of the Discovery
Institute. Sad news of the death of Alfred G. Gilman. And the Royal
Astronomical Society adds its voice for evolution.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A milestone for NCSE on Facebook; a Darwin Day bill in the United
States Senate; and a slew of stories about Matzke's Kitzmas tree.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A new study in Science of the evolution of antievolution, by a former
NCSE staffer. And a preview of David E. Alexander's On the Wing.

Dear friends of NCSE,

A new Darwin Day resolution in the House of Representatives. New
science standards for middle school in Utah. And a failed measure to
recognize the reality of climate change in the House of
Representatives.
