PNW and Other Meetings
Almost every month of the school year, PNW and other groups meet to share ideas on teaching physics as well as community events related to science and engineering. Here is where we have gathered information about those meetings for you to explore.
1. PNW October Meeting at Libertyville HS
Wednesday, October 7
Libertyville High School
Food: 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Sharing 7:00 pm - 8:30/9:00 pm
Please RSVP so Brandon can get a food count.
Even if you don't sign up for a presentation now, there will be same-day sign ups at the meeting. (Our September meeting had a large number of attendees, so we had to handle sign ups prior to the meeting, which is not the norm. Thanks for everyone's understanding about that!)
2. CSAAPT Fall Meeting
This year we have a special offering for our Fall Meeting. Joe Kozminski and Lewis University have generously invited us to join them for the Cosmic Pathways Chicago conference on Saturday, October 17th at Lewis University.
Registration will be at 9 am, with the sessions starting at 9:30 am. Morning sessions will involve talks from career physicists and panels of former physics majors and graduate students. There will be a lunch included at noon and then workshops in the afternoon. At 4 pm, Rhett Allain will give a keynote talk. More information is available on the Cosmic Pathways website.
CSAAPT will have its fall business meeting during the lunch hour. We will have our annual elections and plan for the spring meeting. If you are interested in serving as an officer, please let me know and I will make sure your information gets to the right people.
If there are enough people who want to present contributed talks, we could have an afternoon session parallel with the workshops. Please submit an abstract by October 7th.
There is no fee for the conference if you register Cosmic Pathways. However, if you wish to make a donation to CSAAPT, those will be accepted. Information about that will be available soon.
Registration – Please register by September 30 if possible so that we can get a good food estimate.
High school teachers can earn up to 5 CPDUs by attending Cosmic Pathways / CSAAPT.
Please reach out to one of the officers if you have any questions. Hope to see you on October 17th!
