May Reading List
Dear M.S. MIT Alumni,
One of the new initiatives we would like to begin is emailing a reading list after every weekend the M.S. MIT Charlottesville section meets. The Class of 2009 Charlottesville section met for the first time last Thursday with the new format. This section will meet once a month from Thursday – Saturday. Each week after they meet, we will email a reading list with two or three articles that they discussed in class.
Due to copyright rules, we will not be able to send a pdf of the reading, but will always include the links and directions to download.
