It looks like many people can join on Monday, 8 May, 1pm Center. While I know that this time won't work for everyone, it's the best we can do in the next two weeks! For incoming students, if this time doesn't work, please send me 2-3 time/day options for next week (not Thur, 5/11, please!) and we'll schedule a 2nd round. I'll follow with a calendar invite, but here's the zoom link: https://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/94902808924?pwd=ZEo3QTJSZytDUTVaVDRkZUoyYUE0QT09

Meeting ID: 949 0280 8924 Passcode: 173638

Please plan to bring all questions about visas, arriving in Madison, etc!

Current students - as many of you as are available, we'd love to have you join! Thanks! smk ************************************* Sharon M.

You are receiving this email either because you are a current UW-Madison Physics PhD international student or because you plan to be one in the fall. I'm hoping to plan a 60-minute zoom call sometime in the next 2 weeks so that we can talk through some of the issues and answer some of the questions that are unique to the international student experience.

Current students - You are far more knowledgeable about this than I am, so I'm hoping that some of you are available to join to share your experiences. Incoming students - Some of you have already studied abroad (either in the UW or elsewhere), so might know what you need to know while, for others, this is a brand new adventure. Either way, I think you'll find this meeting helpful.

I'd appreciate it if you could help me find a good time for this meeting by filling out this poll: https://www.when2meet.com/?19872397-PcqBr If you complete it by noon on Friday, I'll find the most workable time/day and get it on our calendars by the end of the day on Friday.

Many thanks! Looking forward to it! smk
