Subject: Fw: Barrett-Hamilton Memorial Lecture
Hi Martha,
The Biological Sciences Graduate Student Association at the University of Manitoba is hosting our annual Barrett-Hamilton Memorial Lecture Series. The speaker this year is Dr. Julia Baum of the University of Victoria, she'll be giving a talk about climate change. I thought it may be of some interest to the students in your department and was hoping you could let them know about it.
The lecture is on Thursday, October 17th from 7:30-8:30pm in the Robert B. Schultz theatre on campus of the University of Manitoba (see attached poster for more details). Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Tamanna YAsmin
