<H2 class="style2">Fall 2010 </H2>
</center>
<p class="style2"><B>Organizers:</B> Dr. Jerry Straka, Dr. Louis Wicker, Dr. Ming Xue, Robin Tanamachi </p>
<p class="style2">This seminar is held <strong>Fridays at 2:00 p.m. in NWC 5600 </strong> during the regular OU spring and fall semesters. You can subscribe to the listserv for this seminar series <a href = "https://geomail.ou.edu/mailman/listinfo/conv_sem">here</a>. </p>
<p class="style2">Dates in green are still available; dates in yellow have been reserved, and dates in red are unavailable. <strong>To schedule a seminar, send your talk title to "rtanamachi <i>at</i> ou <i>dot</i> edu" at least one week before the desired seminar date </strong>(so that you can get on the departmental schedule). Seminar dates towards the end of the semester tend to fill up quickly, so reserve early! Unless you are a graduate student doing your required departmental seminar, your seminar need not fill the entire hour, nor be carefully polished. We encourage presentations (short or long) on works in progress!</p>
