Announcements:
Special Seminar October 31. On Tuesday October 31, there will be a special session of the graduate seminar meeting at 12 noon that day to hear Greg Landweber (U. Oregon) You should consider this talk to be one of our "required" meetings. So as not to mess up the schedule we will still meet at 330 that day to hear Javed's talk. I hope that this will not be too exhausting.
Deadlines. Please be aware of all relevant deadlines. Details may be found here.
