All seminars take place at the society commencing at 5:15 PM and involve the discussion of a pre-circulated paper. After a statement by Prof. Durant and a comment by Mr. Duffy, the floor will be opened to a general discussion of the paper.

Afterwards, the society will serve a light buffet supper. Reservations are suggested to attend the seminar, and are required to stay for the supper so that numbers may be given to the caterer.

Semianrs are free and open to the public, but in order to drfray expenses an annual subascription is asked to subscribe to the papers in advance.
