First Coffee Chat Success!

Thank you to everyone who made it out our first Coffee Chat of the semester and made it such a success! We had a lively conversation about ethics in academia and even got Dr. Sparks up on the whiteboard to answer some interesting conceptual questions.

P.S. – we will be having our 2nd coffee chat on Monday February 26th with Prof. Adrianne Rosales from UT Austin. Read about her work here to prepare for this exciting conversation!
