[phas-dept] Careers Workshop!

[Matt Wood]

Hi, All:

I just want to emphasize that this is a *great* opportunity for all grad and undergrad students.  You won’t want to miss it.  It’s a hands on - small group discussion of career opportunities in our field.  I met Dr. Sauncy at a meeting a few months back where she gave an overview of these workshops, and it’s really great stuff.  She’s an excellent and dynamic speaker, and you will be very glad you came for this!

The SPS meeting that was scheduled has been moved to the next week.
