MIXER
Biogeosciences Section Mixer
Join us from 6:30-8PM, on Wednesday 6 August 2008. Location: Wright B, Hilton
Graduate Student-Faculty Mentorship Dinner
We've been fortunate to have 20 faculty volunteer for the student-faculty dinner following the Biogeosciences mixer. To facilitate good conversation, the dinners will be held in small format: 1 faculty to 2-3 graduate students at a restaurant of your choice. Unfortunately, the ESA Biogeosciences section cannot pay for everyone's dinner, so please be prepared to pay your way (or coax your faculty member into buying for you!). This will be an excellent opportunity for both students and faculty to learn and talk about cutting-edge science, so take advantage of this opportunity.
