[Biomed_students_phd] BMSC 252 and 254 Zoom etiquettes

[Seema K. Tiwari-Woodruff]

Dear Biomed Faculty, Students, and Staff

We are really enjoying the Monday and Friday Seminars. I really appreciate your attendance, questions, and feedback. I am looking forward to in person Seminar Series next quarter (with Pizza for Friday series and without Pizza for the Monday series).
Recently a few faculty members made some very constructive suggestions to increase engagement during the seminars and simultaneously provide training and confidence during question answer sessions.

So-  two huge requests--- I hope you all would comply:

  1.  Faculty and Students: Is it possible to turn on the camera while we listen to the seminar via Zoom the remainder of the year?  Give the speakers the opportunity to see our glowing beautiful faces. I understand if for personal reasons you do not want to turn your camera one day, but I would love to see your face the rest of the days.
  2.  Graduate Students: Would 5 graduate students volunteer to come prepared with a question for the upcoming speakers? You can talk among you and decide which ones will ask the questions.

Next quarter- in person; I will email 5 graduate students to be prepared with questions. Considering number of students in the Biomed Div,  each will get to ask questions 2-3 times/quarter. Let me know if someone has any comments or better suggestions.

Best regards

Seema
