Scheduling
Faculty should keep Monday, Wednesday, and Friday free from 3-6 pm (with the exception of those who teach from 3-4 pm on these days). These are the hours when colloquia and faculty meetings will be scheduled.
Faculty Meetings
Faculty meetings are typically held about once a month on Wednesdays from 4-6 pm.
Colloquia and Other Talks
Colloquia are scheduled approximately once a month by the colloquium committee. Invitations for the upcoming academic year are made in the spring of the previous year.
Colloquia are held on Monday, Wednesdays, or Fridays, starting with a reception at 3:30, followed by the talk at 4:00. Speakers are invited to a dinner with several faculty and 1-2 graduate students.
Other talks, such as a faculty/graduate student seminar series, are also scheduled during these hours.
