“New Faculty Night”
Continuing our old tradition, we have asked three new faculty from universities
within the Section to come and give a brief overview of their work and interests as
a means to help introduce them to the area and to inform the membership about
some of our newest additions.
Each person has been asked to speak for 12 minutes on their work and then we will
allow a brief question period before the next speaker.
Schedule
6:00 – Social Hour (ok, half-hour)
6:30 – Dr. Benjamin Sturtz (Worcester State University)
6:45 – Dr. Aya Narunsky (Worcester Polytechnic Institute)
7:00 – Dr. Justin Lee (College of the Holy Cross)
A brief Section Business Meeting may occur (depends on whether there is any ‘Business’)
followed by general conversation with the speakers (at least until the coffee and
nibbles run out)
For further information (and a campus map), please contact:
Prof. Mark M. Turnbull (mturnbull@clarku.edu)
Parking will be available on the parking garage roof (Downing St. entrance, enter
from the Park Avenue side) or Maywood St. Lot (by the Biology Building).
