2005 Physics Alumni Reception
Thanks very much to those of you who were able to attend our special physics alumni reunion reception, held in Varian Physics on Friday, October 21, 2005, as part of the Reunion Homecoming Weekend. The Physics department reception was attended by approximately 25 physics alumni, in addition to a number of Physics faculty, staff and current students. Professors Douglas Osheroff and Giorgio Gratta were in attendance to meet with some of their former students and colleagues.
The celebratory event provided a wonderful opportunity for alumni, faculty, and staff to mix and mingle. It was very nice to catch up with former students, and we hope that you will enjoy viewing these pictures of the event. Please look for announcements of future alumni events, and plan to attend!
