The Four-Campus Collaborative Video Colloquium Series
 
The Winter and Spring Series: 2010-2011

Streaming videos on-demand for each talk along with the pdf powerpoint of the talk

2010 forward: All new talks in Shockwave Flash stored here and on the CURRENT EVENTS pages for each speaker, where you can find abstracts. But to play from the Doug White Lectures storage page just click each image (the first, Koenig 9/25/2009, corresponds to Sept 25 2009 Koenig) in the current events wiki pages.

Talks for fall 2009 can be opened here as well as from from wiki pages because they are *.swf shockwave files, but this double-listing was discontinued in December 2009 (see CURRENT EVENTS pages instead by search for speakers or by dates):
