ASTR 425 Cosmology: We have some great news... we will be offering ASTR 425 Cosmology in fall 2010. The course will be on the time schedule soon and will most likely meet M, W 1:30-2:50 in PAA A210. I'll let you know if this schedule changes. Dr. Fabio Governato will be the course instructor.
ESS Courses: The Earth and Space Sciences department is offering some great courses in Planetarium Geology (ESS 306-summer) and Space and Plasmas (ESS 415- autumn). Check out these astronomy-related courses on the time schedule.
Summer GRE Physics Study group: Some students have expressed an interest in starting a summer Physics GRE study group. If you're interested please let me know or create a sign up sheet in the computer lab. Those taking the exam next year should seriously considering using a study guide (like this one http://staff.washington.edu/sterrs/epicschmidt.txt) that gives you some idea of what to study and how long you should be studying. The guide linked above is from our very own graduate student Sarah Schmidt.
Colloquium: This Thursday at 4pm in Phys/Astr A102, Barbara McArthur (University of Texas) will give a talk on "New Observational Constraints on the Upsilon Andromedae System with Data from The Hubble Space Telescope and Hobby Eberly Telescope". Join us in the foyer at 3:45pm for coffee, tea and cookies.

Have a great end of the quarter!!
Best,
Sarah
