Emlyn Koster has been named director of the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh, succeeding Betsy Bennett.

"I am thrilled to join such a remarkable research and educational resource,” said Koster. “Science museums of all types are aspiring to be more relevant to the needs and opportunities of society and the environment, and the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences — in all of its onsite, offsite and online dimensions — is a benchmark of major progress. ”

Bennett announced her retirement in July. The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences remains one of the top destination for school field trips in North Carolina.

Dale Gibson manages day-to-day process of putting out the paper; handles inquiries on news coverage and newspaper deadlines.
