Meeting with Dr. Miller

This Tuesday at 3:30 (normal Tuesday Tea time), the graduate students have an opportunity to meet with Dr. Andy Miller, candidate for the Chair of the Math Department. Dr. Miller wants to hear graduate student concerns and answer their questions. The meeting will end at 4:00. Not only is this a great way to share your thoughts and concerns with a potential future leader, but there will be tea and cookies, too! What a deal! So come, bring your questions, and meet with Dr. Miller this week!
