I hope you all had a great weekend! Remember that Monday, Jan. 18 is a state holiday to honor Martin Luther King Jr. There will be no classes and some buildings will be closed. Also note that libraries will be on holiday hours: http://www.lib.washington.edu/about/hours/
Here are some other things to consider this week:
Research Experiences for Undergrads: Don't forget to consider applying to a summer research program. Check out the different programs listed here: http://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/reu_search.cfm You can also check out opportunities posted on the bulletin board across from the undergrad lab.
Astronomy Colloquium: Join us on Thursday at 4pm in Phys/Astr A102 for a talk by George Preston (Carnegie Obs) on "George Wallerstein, Omega Centauri, and the Periodic Table". This talk will be given to honor Prof. George Wallerstein, the first department chair of the UW Astronomy Department! Arrive at 3:45pm for coffee, tea and cookies in the foyer.
Volunteers Needed Jan. 14 5pm: I am in need of 3-4 volunteers on Thursday evening to help with a Department event. I will need help setting up at 5pm and you are welcome to stay for the event. Please send me an email if you are able to volunteer your time.
Physics/Astronomy Building Permits: Please stop by the main office to pick up your Physics/Astronomy building permit if you have building keys. Everyone is required to have these permits if you are in the building after hours (7pm-7am M-F, All day Saturday and Sunday).
Undergrad Photos: Send me a photo of yourself to add to the undergraduate photo board in the Department! A few guidelines: send only photos of yourself, the photo should have you as the focus and please keep the photos appropriate for display in the Department.
Page O'Announcements: Check out the campus events, scholarships and job announcements!! http://pageoannouncements.blogspot.com/
Let me know if you have any questions and have a great week.
Best,
Sarah
