Preparing for the graduate of 2015

Full program
Due to the number of presentations, there are very limited change-over times between sessions. If you wish to move between rooms between sessions, please do so as quickly and quietly as possible so that you do not disrupt the presenters at the beginning or end of their sessions. Session chairs have been instructed to enforce strict time keeping and quick changes between presentations.
