Golden Rules of the Colloquium Speaker
- Underestimate, as much as humanly possible, the expertise (but not the intelligence) of the audience.
- Make the first 10-15 minutes of your colloquium intelligible to non-physicists. For guidance, consider how you might explain your work to a relative.
- Make the next 10-15 minutes intelligible to undergraduate physics majors.
- Let the third 10-15 minutes be sparklingly clear to graduate students and to professors who are not specialists in your area.
- Use the last part of the talk to impress the experts
