The purpose of this first seminar is to help new, returning, and prospective students (including both undergraduate and graduate students), faculty, and staff to become acquainted with each other and with the Physics Department. In particular, we will welcome Fred Salsbury, our newest faculty member whose specializes in the modeling of biological molecules, and Gale Burns, our newest staff member who works with Judy Swicegood in the departmental office. After refreshments in the lounge in the lobby of Olin Physical Laboratory (3:30-4:00 PM), we will meet in the George P. Williams, Jr. Lecture Hall (Olin 101) for some important announcements.
