Keeping in line with Oregon State University’s mission for inclusive excellence, the Physics Graduate Student Committee is calling a department-wide town hall meeting on Monday, November 18 from 3:30-5:00 pm. This meeting, the first in what will be an annual series, is intended to be a safer space that promotes transparency and invites thought and conversation between graduate students and faculty, with the hope that discussions will progress beyond these ninety minutes. The theme of this year’s meeting is Department Culture.
