The October 2023 Portland Section meeting will be an online webinar among Puget Sound, Oregon, and Portland Sections. The Section will pay for food and drink for Watch Parties to attend this virtual event up to $15 per person. We hope this will facilitate undergraduate and graduate student participation in the 4pm session, but any Section member can organize one!
