Happy November!
Thank you for your support last week. We got a good number of graduate students together, to celebrate halloween, including a few with their young’uns who carved up some pumpkins. There aren’t many opportunities in the year to make that kind of connection with our graduate student community, and especially those with families. Thank you for forwarding these on.
