You are cordially invited to the 2012 Anacapa Society Meeting on theoretical and computational physics research in primarily undergraduate institutions (PUI) at Hamline University in Saint Paul, Minnesota, May 11-12, 2012. We are very pleased to have Professor Tim Sullivan from Kenyon College to be a keynote speaker for the conference. We have also lined up NSF program director Keith Diense to make a presentation/lead a discussion about funding; we may have someone from the Research Corporation as well. The Anacapa Society promotes research in all areas of theoretical and computational physics at primarily undergraduate institutions. Details about the Anacapa Society and some previous activities can be found at: http://anacapasociety.org/ The two-day event will include invited and contributed talks on research at PUIs, career advice on grants from current and former program directors, as well as informal discussions with colleagues.
