E-mail Announcements
The Urbana logic group maintains a distribution list of
people interested in news about activities of the logic
program at the University of Illinois. This provides E-mail
announcements of all sorts of things, from seminars to the
weekly logic lunch, as well as parties and our weekly
gathering after the Friday seminar, and the style of the
system is quite informal. Anyone interested in being added to
this list should send email to Ward Henson . See
