There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Marc Merlin describes himself as a curator, but doesn’t run a museum or library—he hosts a gathering at a local pub. The organization, called the Atlanta Science Tavern (AST), serves up presentations and learning opportunities in a unique, open environment. Georgia Tech's College of Sciences contributes to many of these lectures and presentations, including by School of Mathematics Professor Matt Baker and School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Ph.D student Luju Ojha.
