All History students are invited to a "So You Want To Go To Grad School" information session on Wednesday, October 26, 2016 at 3:00 p.m. in AH176.

Faculty members from the History Department will be available to answer questions you may have re:  graduate school.  Pizza and pop will be available on a first come, first serve basis.

Dr. Kent Peacock (Philosophy Department) will present "The Joys of LaTeX: An Entry Guide for the Potentially Obsessive" on Monday, October 3rd at 2:00 p.m. in C-610.  All are welcome.

LaTeX is a document formatting system widely used in technical subjects such as logic, math, physics, linguistics, computer science, and philosophy of science.  No other software compares in the quality of output and the huge range of symbols and images that can be produced - if you know how!!  This talk will give a quick and dirty introduction to the joys (and occasional frustrations) of LaTeX.

Students currently enrolled in English courses for Fall 2016 are invited to a gathering in the English Department on September 30th (3:30 - 5:30 p.m. - A-840 hallway) to meet and chat informally with fellow students and faculty.  Pizza and refreshments will be served and available on a first come, first serve basis.

The department faculty look forward to meeting and chatting with current students.

Admission is free. All are welcome.
