Please join us on Friday, May 18, for the Quaternary Research Center's Spring Workshop, which this year focuses on Martian glaciation. Experts on extra-terrestrial glaciation have been invited from around the country and across campus to speak in a morning session at Mary Gates Hall (room 271 from 9 am to 12 noon), and there will be an afternoon session in the QRC office (377 Johnson Hall).

For those in the know there will be coffee and donuts at the QRC office from 8:30 to 9:00am as folks gather.

For those who register in advance and plan to attend for the day, there will be lunch in the QRC office and, based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback from last year's workshop, we will once again be chartering a bus to take participants to dinner at Hale's Ale House (in Ballard or Fremont, depending on where you draw the line) at the end of the day.

RSVP to Susan Rasmussen (susanqrc@u.washington.edu) by May 1st to sign up for the workshop, lunch and/or dinner.

Students: To register for 1 credit email your name and student ID to Susan Rasmussen (susanqrc@u.washington.edu). No late registration fee will be charged.
