Revision as of 13:25, 14 December 2016

Invitation

Based on your feedback we will meet this Wednesday Dec. 14th at 4pm EDT. We'll meet locally in CEBAF Center F-Wing Rm. 224-225 and by phone/video conference call using BlueJeans (info below). Since the purpose of this meeting is to discuss an upcoming NSF funding opportunity I'd like to take a few minutes at the beginning to set the stage. However, since we haven't met in awhile and there are some new faces joining it would be nice to then go "around the room" to take a few minutes and share recent activities or interest. Afterwards, we can return to discussing how we may consider to organize our OAM interests, and see if some can be refined for a proposal.
