BSGS Christmas Party

December 6, 2006

BSGS invites you to attend the graduate student Christmas party. This will be an opportunity to get together and celebrate the end of the semester. It will take place at Rudyard's Pub in Montrose (if you don't know the place, you are spending too much time in your lab) on Friday December 15th at 7:00pm.

AND we will offer you the first drink!!!!. Guests are very welcome (although we can't afford to offer them a drink).

For those of you who don't have a ride, we will organize a car pool from the University.

If you can make it, please let us know at bsgs@uh.edu.

See you at the bar!

New code to enter BSGS Lounge

November 21, 2006

We changed the code to enter the BSGS Lounge, please check your email or ask us at bsgs@uh.edu.
We also refilled the lounge with food and drinks.

Food and Drinks in the BSGS Lounge

October 2, 2006

We (finally) loaded the lounge with food and drinks. Sodas, water, sweets, chips, pop-corn and noodles are available for 50 cents per item.
We realized that some people were actually considering this convenience as a free food provider. We know that graduate students don't have a lot of money. But neither does BSGS, and if you don't pay we will soon not be able to provide food and drinks anymore. So please, make sure you pay for what you take. For those of you who had a tab before October 1st, we reported your dues on the board in the lounge.
For the newly arrived students, the lounge is located in SR2, room 214. There is a code to enter, that you can obtain from other graduate students (or by emailing us at bsgs@uh.edu). If you have any suggestion about items that you would like to see in the lounge, please let us know, we will be happy to consider it for the next groceries.

Departmental Seminar Speaker Survey

April 13, 2006

Please suggest a speaker for the Fall 2006 Departmental Seminars.
The invitation is nationwide however it is pretty obvious it will be difficult for us to attract someone which is very famous and far away. Therefore we would recommend a local speaker, i.e. from within Texas.

Parking Survey

September 8, 2005

BSGS is working hard on resolving the parking issue. There are some unanswered questions like why some people are denied the parking permit and some others not. We need your help to answer this question. Your answer is confidential and will not have any impact on your faculty/staff permit if you already have one. But it is really significant in order to be able to give a complete picture to people of higher authorities outside our Department. We appreciate your fast response.
