Dear GSW members, I hope you and yours are doing well. Reminder Given the current COVID-19 public health emergency, our GSW meeting on May 13 (flyer attached) will again be a virtual meeting using Zoom technology, which is a free download for users. Just in case you are unfamiliar with this software, here are some tutorial materials and FAQ: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/categories/200101697. GSW meeting format surveys Here are links to two short surveys on recent meetings: GSW Meeting No. 1552 (AGU HQ) March 11, 2020 - https://forms.gle/5mT1vGNqVuwyDffX7 GSW Meeting No. 1554 (Virtual via Zoom) April 29, 2020 - https://forms.gle/HkeHbhXy1621YmHbA To complete these two surveys you will need to provide your email address, but rest assured that your answers will be completely anonymized before GSW officers see the aggregate data. Please respond by May 18. Your input will be very helpful in evaluating these two types of meetings, as they are different from our customary GSW meetings at the Cosmos Club. Thank you, and hope to see you virtually tonight!
