Hi everyone, 

I hope those of you who are able to attend tonight's event have a great time. Wish I could be there! In the meantime, thinking ahead, check out this conference that will be in NYC. Anyone of you could propose your paper that you did for my class and probably get in to present your work! Eugenia may have mentioned it to you already, but if not, have a look (pasted below). 

Have a great day and stay warm! 
Prof W.
