SPS Today: Games and trip plans

From: Reynolds, Sarah J


Join us at SPS today (4 pm in 3005 Malott) for a relaxing break -- we'll
be eating some snacks, playing some games, talking about physics (as
usual), and discussing plans for next week's trip to the Kansas
Cosmosphere & Space Center.

If you're interested in going to the Cosmosphere next weekend, remember
to e-mail Sarah (sreynold (at) ku.edu) and let her know.

All are welcome!
