ChemRAT meeting

If you went to the chemRAT meeting late- it was canceled as one person was in attendance. The meeting is at 11am, second Thursday of each month- unless otherwise noted due to scheduling exceptions.

See you next month.

ChemRAT meeting today at 11am, 2015MP

A ChemRAT meeting is scheduled for today at 11am in 2015MP. As promised I’m going to order some pizzas- since pizza shops open right at 11 I’m not sure what the actual delivery time will be.

Topics for today include:
– University Security Standards
– I’ll run through the Mobile security interview… and scheduling a meeting with your group. When can we do that?
– Large format printer, new lab printers, other general items
– Depending on who will make it from Computer Support- perhaps other interesting topics.
– Your questions and group needs.
