The group meets 8:30-9:00 am every day for a presentation by one member of the group who will showcase a manuscript of general interest. We disperse precisely at 9:00 am. This morning ritual has helped foster group cohesion and a superb work ethic. It has also improved reading comprehension and presentation skills, and the ability to deliver a focused message in 30 minutes.
We started this ritual on 1-12-2004 in UT-Dallas and had our first meeting in UMass Lowell on 2-20-2007.
Our Journal Club Room in Olney Hall 303
