===Description / Motivation:===
  * GSPS meets weekly; each hour features a talk by one grad student and one postdoc on their own research.
  * Talks should be ~20 minutes + 5 minutes for questions.
  * Speakers can present work that is fully complete all the way through work in just the beginning stages.
  * Please emphasize background material.
  * (Practice qual talks / job talks are fine to present.)
  * No faculty allowed.
  * GSPS is a good place to...
    * promote community between students and postdocs
    * practice speaking and discussing your research
    * feel comfortable asking lots of questions
    * learn about topics outside your own research
  * If you would like feedback on your presentation, the organizers would be happy to take notes and discuss it with you afterwards (and/or ask other audience members to do so).
Organizers:  Linda Strubbe & Eric Huff  (please contact us if you have questions)

Thanks for participating in GSPS!
