Advertising UT Austin Summer Minicourses

[Amy Li <amyqli@utexas.edu>]

Hello,

I'm writing to advertise the UT Austin Summer Minicourses (SMC). This is a
series of summer lectures/problem sessions, where graduate student and
post-doc experts communicate ideas to non-experts. The courses focus on
tools, methods, and ideas that may not be covered in preliminary courses
offered at UT Austin. Many of our minicourses this summer (2022) will be
held with a Zoom option, so non-UT graduate students / post-docs are
cordially invited to join in!

Our course listings (descriptions can be found here
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tUErRA1xW1OrvUvaMTRf3akxOl5sQPQyGi1s3E_ZC0M/edit#gid=0>)
this summer include:
