GEM Student Tutorials
---------------------

As many of you are aware from Harlan's recent agenda, this year is the
first year of a trial program for student tutorials.  Here is the agenda. 
We have asked that most of the presentations be given by students.  The
audience that we have asked that the talks be geared to is graduate
students.  We hope that every student will find these talks useful.  The 
talks are scheduled to start at 2pm and will finish by 6pm in plenty of 
time for regestration.  Any questions should be directed to the student 
co-leaders:

	Aaron Ridley ridley at zasu.sprl.umich.edu
	Karen Lewis Hirsch hirsch at bu.edu
