Meeting Conclusions:

For the remainder of the quarter we are going to try and have 3
meetings: one will be a dinner at National Mechanics for more of a
social burgers and drinks night, another will be a hike at the Heinz
Wildlife Refuge for the weekend of October 24th beginning around
10am. The park is accessible by public transpo or we may try and
organize some carpooling. The third meeting will be a journal club
where we will all read an article or two and discuss it or them.

Meetings will be held starting next week. We are thinking Monday
10/14 or Tuesday night 10/13 at National Mechanics in the evening. We
originally thought Wednesday, but they do Quizzo and it will be much
busier.

As mentioned above, the second meeting will be a hike/walk/wildlife
observation on 10/24.

The final will be a meeting on campus where we do Journal club either
the week of 11/9 or the week of 11/16, times and weekdays TBD.

If you are interested in going to the first meeting, please reply.

Great to hear this is still going on! Let me know if you all want to
do anything during APHA. I'm up for some sort of alumni event...

Hope the school year is going well!
