Additional Information
Travel Reimbursements:
The NSF grant that funds the Pacific Northwest Geometry Seminar provides limited funds to reimburse travel expenses for PNGS participants, including roundtrip transportation and hotel for the weekend. The funds are available to graduate students or faculty members who do not have NSF grants that include travel funds. First priority goes to graduate students from the participating universities (Lewis & Clark, Oregon State, U. of Oregon, Pacific, Portland State, Seattle U., UBC, U. of Washington), and second priority to faculty members from these universities. Participants from other institutions may be supported if funds are available.
If you are interested in travel support, please contact Christine Escher (escherc@oregonstate.edu) as early as possible, preferably no later than three weeks before the meeting.
