Colloquium

This week, we will have an atypically short colloquium meeting rather than a full research talk because we have several students and faculty away attending the Grace Hopper conference.

We’ll use the colloquium meeting as our usual excuse to gather and enjoy delicious cookies, but this otherwise open slot provided a good opportunity to introduce you to a new member of HMC’s career services team, Assistant Director, Vanessa Janovick, and remind you of some of the useful services they provide.
