Papers and notes from previous semesters can be found in the BCS meeting archive|../../../../../../../../../../display/BCS/Past+BCS+Meetings|\.
The overarching theme this semester is likely to be "Active Sensation", perhaps to be modified at our first meeting. Please interpret BCS themes broadly -- they are meant to focus rather than to exclude.
