ESPECIALLY FOR
STUDENTS
Coffee with a Member
This wonderful program connects
INFORMS students with some of
INFORMS most enthusiastic members
for 15-minute impromptu meetings and
some sage INFORMS advice. We know
the Annual Meeting can be a
bit overwhelming and hope these
casual meetings will make students
more comfortable, knowledgeable, and
enthusiastic about both the meeting
and INFORMS. Student attendees
were offered the opportunity to sign
up before the meeting on a first-come,
first-served basis (it is not possible
to sign up in Philadelphia.) We will
follow up after the meeting with a short
survey to the students and members
who participated to help us improve
the program for future meetings.
