[Poscgrad] Invitation for lunch with Dr. Wendy Wong on February 26th

[Diogo Ferrari]

Hi everyone,

On February 26th, Dr. Wendy Wong (University Of British Columbia) will be visiting UCR and giving a talk as part of our speaker series. You can access her information [[https://politics.ubc.ca/profile/wendy-wong/][here]]. We strongly encourage everyone to attend the talk in person. 

After the talk, the speaker will have lunch with graduate students at the Stable. This is a fantastic networking opportunity, and we will cover the expenses for lunch. We are limiting the attendance to four graduate students to avoid overcrowding the meeting and ensure that those attending have a chance to interact with the speaker properly. We will give strong priority to those who have overlapping research interests with the speaker. All else being equal, we will also prioritize more advanced students working on their dissertation research and those currently on the job market. We will also do our best to rotate so that everybody has the opportunity to attend one of these events during the academic year, but we encourage you to sign up even if you have attended previous ones.

If you are interested in attending the lunch event, please let us know by Wednesday, Feb 21st at 5 pm by filling out [[https://forms.gle/m2GgQwv1wdjd6NWD6][this form]]. In order to maximize your chances of being selected, please explain briefly (2-3 sentences) in the form why you would benefit from meeting with the speaker.

Please note that there will also be a happy hour with the speaker open to all members of the department (faculty and graduate students) at 4 pm. This is another great opportunity for networking and collegiality, so we also encourage you to attend this event.

Thanks so much for your help in making these visits a success!

Best regards,\\
DF
