Web editor's note: I've taken the liberty of including Aaron's email here because it is important for all members to see. We're still working on the details of this site and what is to be included, so bear with us. In the future this information may (only?) appear elsewhere.
Hello fellow Physics Society members. This letter is one of many bi-weekly anouncements for Physics Society that will be posted exclusively by email. If anyone has anything that they would like posted for the other members to see, please contact one of the officers. Also, if anyone does not wish to receive these letters, please let one of us know.
As posted in the Quad Day Info Sheet, there will be a picnic on Friday, Sept. 8 (this Fri) at 5 PM. The location is Illini Grove, which is on Lincoln Ave., accross from PAR. Also, our first speeker meeting is on Wednesday, Sept. 13 at 7 PM in 144 Loomis. This month's speaker will be Professor Hertzog who will give a short lecture on nuclear physics. More information about this meeting will be available in this month's newsletter.
The 1995-96 Physics Society Directory, including local addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses is complete (with a few flaws.) It will be posted outside the Physics Society office (239 Loomis) by Wednesday. Please stop by before Friday to make any neccessary corrections. If you do not wish to have your name or any part of your address or phone number appear in the directory, please respond immediately to this letter, i.e. before Wed.
Three people signed the interest sheet at the meeting last Wednesday. While its great that a few people are interested in this activity, we could use some more. If anyone has a particular interest in nuclear physics, interviewing Prof. Hertzog would be the way to go. Please respond to this letter if you are interested in writng a column of flexible size either now or in the coming months. Those who signed the interest sheet should be receiving additional email soon.
Thanks to Chris Clayton, the first Physics Society home page is up and running. Although its still under construction, its off to a great start and I encourage everyone to check it out. The location can be reached from http://www.students.uiuc.edu/~misterc. Things to look for in the following weeks are the directory, the latest newsletter, and pictures from this year's activities.
If there are any questions or comments concerning any of the material on this anouncement, please respond or write to amhartma@uiuc.edu. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
