The seminar is scheduled on Wednesday at 10:30 am in C&SRL
room 141.
The schedule is fixed, and any seminars that run over will be completed
in a make-up
session before the next seminar. The make-up session time will
be arranged as needed.
Speakers are expected to distribute copies of the paper to be presented
two weeks before the
seminar. Speakers should unlock and prepare the rooms.
See Francie or Becky for keys.
