MRVED Business

Summer Professional Development
The MRVED will be hosting a variety of Summer professional development opportunities in the months of June and July.  Look for the flyer in the coming weeks.  Be sure to register early, as there is a minimum number of participants needed to run each workshop.

Communication Briefings
Do you know when to use the word between and when to choose among?  Both words are prepositions, and many writers use them almost interchangeably.  However, their use and meaning vary.
  • Use between to refer to a relationship involving two of something.  Examples:  The selection committee will choose between Chris and Carol.  The competition between the two of them is fierce.
  • Use among to refer to a relationship involving any number above two.  Examples: The ballots circulated among the committee members.  Among the seven members, only two have not yet voted.
