Following the success of our "Grad student mixer", we've decided to go with a relatively informal organization for the Cognitive Science Initiative, at least for the summer (that is, we won't try to form an official steering committee yet).
We'll have two meetings at which all interested faculty and graduate students will be welcome. We'll discuss the activities of our proto-Institute for the upcoming academic year (creation of new website, workshop(s), launch of scholars program...).
Here are the times for your calendar - like the mixer, the meetings will be at the Amherst Brewing Company. We'll likely have a full group roundtable starting shortly after 3, and try to leave some time for smaller group discussions afterwards.
Meeting 1: June 11th 3-5
Meeting 2: July 16th 3-5
Faculty interested in getting on the mailing list should fill out this google form
And graduate students should use this one.
