From my group:
- Emily Wuchner will be discussing measurements of neutron-star tidal parameters at Tuesday at 11:09 Session H20
- Ryan Johnson showing how he can correct for waveform uncertainty in compact binary inference on Tuesday at 2:54 in Session J17.

I have a Pathfinder book you can borrow if you want to mix it up!

I just today had a student ask about using isometric graph scratch paper on a magnetism midterm! Maybe I can have some available for everyone.
