Planning Brownbag: March 8; 12-1:00pm; English Building 107A
In preparation for this year’s Graduate Student Symposium, CWS is sponsoring a brownbag event for interested graduate students on March 8, from 12.00p-1.00p in English Building 107A. During this session, we will present more information about the symposium itself and provide a strategic planning space for students interested in preparing conference abstracts and putting together collaborative presentations.
If you’re unsure of what to bring to this session, here are some possibilities: a blurb outlining what you’d like to present, an excerpt of a project you’d like feedback on for presenting, pieces of data to workshop or discuss, or a list of questions about presenting in general.
Whether this is your first time presenting at the symposium or you’re a veteran, we hope you’ll join us at this brownbag to brainstorm for and workshop materials for proposals.
