Hello Physics Graduate Students:
Please take a moment to fill out the tutor sign up form for the Physics Department website: https://app.physics.wisc.edu/tutor-signup/. The form requires authentication with a UW NetID.
The Physics Department maintains/posts this list on the website<https://www.physics.wisc.edu/undergraduate/student-resources/#tutoring>. However, we consider this private tutoring/instruction. This list is available so students who need additional tutoring/instruction beyond the support of their faculty member or TA may reach out to you individually and you are free to set and request your own fees. Please consider supporting UW-Madison students seeking academic support in Physics in this way.
Kind Regards,
Elizabeth Baldridge, M.S. Ed.

Hello Graduating MSPQC Students:

Cap and Gown Pick Up:
I picked up the cap and gown rental order today and they will be available for you to pick up at 2320 Chamberlin Hall between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM next week, Monday - Friday, August 11. If I am out of the office, please see Leigh at the front desk for your apparel (she is copied on this email).

Presentation of Graduates:
During the procession of graduates, your research or faculty advisor will say something about you. You will go up to the "stage" or front of the Forum Room and they will present you with your diploma holder. If you want to say a few words at that time, you're welcome and encouraged to. If you would like me to share with you the responses you submitted on your RSVP survey, I'm happy to share them as you prepare for the ceremony tomorrow.
When you walk off the "stage," you will have the opportunity to get a formal graduation photo taken (the MSPQC program is providing a photographer for this event).
Attire
* Business casual is fine for underneath your cap and gown.

Parking
There are some lots on campus that allow visitor parking after a certain time. Some lots may also have a fee for visitors to park (depending on what time your guests arrive).
The closest lot is probably University Ave. Parking Garage-right across the street from the discover building and Subway.
Here's a link to a visitor parking live link that updates how many visitor spots are available in each ramp and maps to each ramp:

Graduation Gift
All graduates will receive a graduation gift (image below). If you are unable to take your gift with you at the event-they're a bit large-you can just let me know and I'm happy to store your gift in my office until you can arrange pick up sometime the following week (Aug. 14-18).
