SPS Grad Map: Where have all the graduates gone?  Check out this map of where former SPS members have gone after graduating from UM.  Add yourself if you have graduated and aren't on it!

H-bar: Kind of like SPS meetings, but without announcements and with tasty treats. Next date: 09/06 @ 7pm - 10pm. Email h-bar@umich.edu to get H-bar updates.

Physics Palooza: Want to play with cool toys and share your love of Physics with young people? Two years ago we tried something a little different. We did a two-day demo extravaganza at the Hands-On Museum in order to reach a larger audience and were able to do it again last year. We're planning to repeat the fun next year! Email spslist@umich.edu to get your name on the list today.

Tutoring: Need help with your 125/126 or 140/240 problem sets? Free tutoring is available weekdays during the school year in the physics help room (1412 Randall Lab).  To arrange for a private tutor, check the tutors page.

Check back soon for updates on our tutoring plans for fall 2007.
