ICERM Fall 2015

The week of September 9-11

How to read this table: each row represents a 30-minute time block starting at the specified time, except for rows labeled in red which denote 15-minute blocks. For example, check-in starts Wednesday at 9:00 and ends Wednesday at 1:30; the welcome session starts Wednesday at 1:45 and ends Wednesday at 2:00.
