A great event held next week, directly before class. May be interesting to Graduate Students with questions on publishing and their fields pre-and-post graduation. Also an interesting conversation on whether materials for courses should be accessible openly or if pay walls are necessary. We’ve had conversations like this in the course in the past. This event will supply much context!
