The ASTR133 class will have two open presentation sessions as part of their midterm project next week on Tuesday/Thursday 2:00-3:20pm (May 5&7). You are all invited to drop by, listen and ask questions about their presentations. They will be in 2-4 person groups presenting on a topic of their choice (not really a research project, but mainly something they read up on and are interested in). You also get to vote on best presentations :)
These students are mostly first year undergrads who are thinking of majoring in astro.
You might remember last year we had a poster session and was great to see many of you show up and ask questions!
Detail call-in information and the topics they are presenting are listed below. Great if you can send me a note if you already know you will attend, but no worries of course just showing up.
Thanks all,
Chihway
