Connect with other graduate students and postdocs while you enjoy a relaxed afternoon outdoors.

Postdocs, graduate students, and their families are invited to enjoy a cozy fall bonfire at the Laurel Creek fire pit (across from Environment 2). 

Event details:

  • Who can attend: Postdocs and graduate students, along with their partners and dependents of all ages.

  • Registration: Required in advance to secure your spot. Please include the number of guests you’ll be bringing when you register. No ticket is needed at the event.

  • Seating: Limited seating is available at the fire pit — we recommend bringing a folding chair and/or blanket.
