Sponsor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Prof Lucas, Zoom, Friday at 3pm:
We need to communicate a lot more than we have been - 1-2 hours twice a week is not enough!
It seems like we understand what we're doing, but we need to connect the dots and show why we're doing it and what we want to get out of it (especially with analysis work)
It seems like there's a general lack of cohesion amongst us, and we need to make this project a higher priority
