The Colloquium will not meet this week. No regular Colloquium had been planned because of the INTERPHASE Conference (www.math.umd.edu/research/interphase), which the Campus was hosting. Now, because of the recent terrorist attacks, the conference has been postponed. It has tentatively been rescheduled for early January, 2002. |
