Jonas heard about this event from a friend at FSU and shared it at the meeting on Thursday. Rather than include it with the internship info, I think it deserves more attention than that.

The big opportunity is Wednesday, September 25.
Sir Harold Kroto, winner of the Nobel Prize as a co-discoverer of C60 (better known as the Buckyball) while at Rice University, will be speaking about that discovery as an example of how a scientific discovery happens. It is VERY rare to hear someone talk about how they came up with the idea behind such an important experiment, let alone one that is revolutionizing everything from chemistry and physics to materials science (nanotubes) and medicine. I should also mention that he is a good speaker.
All programs start at 5:30 pm in the Askew Student Life Center, which you can read about here . It is east of the Leach Center and west of Parking Garage No. 2, just west of the part of Woodward Avenue that is closed to traffic. The easiest access to parking is from the south, heading up Woodward from Gaines. The entrance to the theater is on the west side of the building that faces Learning Way.

Important parking information:
You can park in any legal "R" or "W" space on the FSU campus after 4:30 on Wednesday. The old surface lot due east of the Askew center is now closed for construction, so the nearest parking option is in the "Traditions" parking garage, also called Garage No. 2. Lots on the west side (around the Circus area or the baseball field) are further away.
