This forum has a history of being fun and I hope you will join us for Linda Summers's now famous fruit salad and the opportunity to talk about the science of sex differences, social effects on development, and other issues related to Common Themes in Reproductive Diversity.

As in the past these will be scheduled for Wednesday mornings at 9 AM, but there is an exception, see Friday October 17 when we will meet with a visiting speaker with closely related interests, Joan Roughgarden. Also the November meeting is exceptional in that it will coincide with the Assessment team's visit.

Wednesday, October 15, 8:30 AM Peg McCarthy, University of Maryland, Baltimore: "Advances in the Study of Sexual Differentiation"
