On Friday, April 29, 2016, SWiP will be hosting a luncheon with physics professors from the department Jim Beatty and Amy Connolly. Both are married to a fellow academic (in physics and outside of physics) at Ohio State. They’ll discuss how they handled the job market in the search of two coinciding academic jobs (a common scenario in the so-called “two-body problem”). Please RSVP by Wednesday, April 27th if you would like to receive lunch! If you miss the deadline, feel free to bring a lunch and attend the discussion. We hope to see you there!
SWiP Chip Chat: Weekly Meetup!
SWiP will start holding weekly, casual meetups to foster community and discuss plans more efficiently – we’re calling them SWiP Chip Chats (for the snack we have in abundance right now). Currently, we’re having them on Thursdays at 4 pm in 1136 PRB. Each month, one of the time spots will be converted to a formal SWiP general meeting.
Hope you can stop by!
