This last week has been slow in the research department. I got some things done both for classes and TA work though. Most of it consisted of tracking down people to check on things (where’d that CCD camera we ordered go? etc). I’m happy to say that most of it got resolved relatively easily.
This weekend is also the visiting weekend for prospective students. Seven of the accepted students are here to tour the department, find out what we’re working on, and meet the graduate students. I’ve been to a couple meals with them and taken them to/from some of the visits (NRAO Technology Center, Fan Mountain Observatory, etc). It has been fun getting to meet them all. I’m looking forward to hopefully seeing them in the Fall! Things are wrapping up tonight with a party, which is always a good time.
On the personal front, as soon as this post is done I will be editing my pictures from observing in Green Bank, then hopefully the pictures from New Orleans. Links will be posted when those are done…
