Hey everyone! I hope you’ve all had a good start to the year and are ready to get going with the Society of Physics Students! We’ve got two events this week.

Thursday at 2:45pm: The Physics Minute - 1 minute of physics and 15 minutes of ice cream (these will be biweekly now instead of every week - come supplement your coffee intake with some coffee ice cream :) )

Friday at Jewell Time (10:15am): Catherine Dema is going to give a talk about her research experience at Cornell this summer!

Please feel free to invite anyone you think would be interested to join for these events!
