Subject: [Sci-tech-public] Upcoming STS Special Events
Hello all, and welcome to the snowy/rainy February. I want to draw
your attention to a number of STS events this month, some of which
have not yet been otherwise announced, some of which are part of the
“Subway Series” with Harvard, and some of which are part of the
MIT150th. It should be a stimulating month, and then it will be
spring ;)
Please do join us,
David
