DEPARTMENTAL EVENTS

Each year the Department makes special efforts to schedule lectures by invited scholars and speakers, as well as faculty and graduate student presentations within the Department. These events are part of the professional activities that provide cultural and intellectual opportunities both for the faculty and the graduate students. They can be meaningful only if all faculty and graduate students in the Department attend them regularly. It should be understood that they are an essential part of graduate education. Thus the Department expects all graduate students to attend these events.
