Undergraduate Pacific Physics and Astronomy Conference: Saturday, March 14 at University of British Columbia. Maybe some of you are interested in carpooling and making a weekend out of it?
The conference is a free one-day event that attracts students from across
BC and the Pacific Northwest to share research and learn about research
opportunities - so it's an awesome experience for anyone interested in
presenting their research or seeing the research that other undergraduates
have done. Registration is online at
