[Emeriti-faculty] Department events for week of 11/30/09

[Gayle Grant <gayle grant tufts edu>]

Good morning:

This is a very busy week, with an Oral Qualifying Exam, a Joint 
Tufts/CfA/MIT Cosmology Seminar, an SPS seminar, and a Lunchtime 
Cosmology Seminar.

The Oral Qualifying Exam that Handhika Ramadhan is giving on Monday, 
will will also be the Journal Club meeting this week. Please note it is 
at 3:15 instead of 4:30 in Robinson 253. I will order pizza for 4:30 in 
Robinson 251.

I have listed the events below, I also put a flier with all the 
information in your mailbox. Please support all the speakers by 
attending all of our events.
