Astronomy Career Exploration Workshop

Not sure that you want to go straight to astronomy grad school or even go
to grad school at all? Let's do some career exploration!

What: A Saturday event Jan. 24 from 9 am to 2 pm (includes morning
refreshments and lunch)
Where: Somewhere in Physics/Astronomy Building
Who: Astronomy majors plus speakers who are high school teachers,
museum/science center staff, community college instructors, observatory
support staff. Others? Your suggestions are welcome. Lots of informal
discussion and advice.

If I get sufficient response to this idea, I'll arrange the event. Please
let me know by December 10 if you think you might be interested in
attending. It's not a commitment on your part to come at this point, I
just want to see how many majors might like to do this.
