You also have a SWC pitch that you can use here:

Hi David,

There is this:

Hey all,

I'm giving a brief (10 minute) presentation next week at a ASU
Physics department faculty meeting to convince the department to
support annual an SWC workshop targeted to graduate students each
January. I don't think it will be a hard sell, since the chair was
already impressed by the feedback from our workshop this January
, but is there a
reasonably up-to-date set of materials I can draw from to make it an
easy decision for them?

The department has already made strides in improving the
computational education of their undergraduates with a new
Computational Methods in Physics

course, for which we've drawn heavily from the SWC playbook in
putting together. The annual SWC workshop should help to fill in the
gaps for incoming graduate students that didn't get to benefit from
such a course in their own undergrad program.

Thanks!

David
