**  The UW-Manitowoc Professional Development Committee Proudly Presents        Mike Sherman       For        The Spring First Colloquium             **//The Large Hadron Collider//**        **//“Is Higgs In The House?”//**              The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), spans part of the French and Swiss border and is both the largest scientific instrument and the largest machine ever built. The LHC became operational in 2009 and consist of an accelerator ring 16.5 miles in circumference and has four main detectors, two of which are seven stories in height. The LHC is capable of accelerating protons to a speed of 99.99995% that of the speed of light (186,000 miles/second). The goal of the LHC is to test our current theories of matter and fundamental forces by recreating the early moments just after the Big Bang.     The presentation will cover some of the physical construction and makeup of the LHC and give a brief overview of what physicist are hoping to discover.      <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">    <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  **When?**      <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  **Friday, February 25, 2011 at 2:00 PM**      <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  **Where?**      <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  **H204**     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  Please join us and find out what this is all about. <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> Thanks,    <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  Meg Onoda, chair of PPD    <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">  <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Meg Onoda//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">    <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Mathematics Department//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //UW-Manitowoc//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //705 Viebahn Street//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Manitowoc, WI 54220-6699//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Office: H134//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Phone: (920) 683-4693//     <span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"> //Email://  //megumi.onoda@uwc.edu//

We all know that the semester is ending, and we all want to slack off and enjoy the holiday season with friends and family. However, finals are fast approaching and we must stay focused on school or our final grades will be not as good as we wished. Here is some advice from the UW-Manitowoc faculty and staff, people who have helped us throughout the year.

Cathy Buchner, the lovely woman behind the Student Services desk who seems to know everything, says, “Get plenty of rest, eat right, and don’t cram but study hard.”

Cathy Helgeland, professor of Geography and Geology says, “Get as much sleep as you can get. Don’t wait for finals week to start studying, start now. Study with others if they are interested in studying.”

Julie DeZeeuw, our Student Services Coordinator says, “Pace yourself; don’t cram. And make sure you get plenty of rest.”

Todd Corley, professor of mathematics, says,”Get plenty of sleep trust in your abilities, and celebrate your knowledge.”

Brian Murphy, associate professor of mathematics says,”Relax and be confident.”

Megumi Onoda, ﻿ ﻿associate professor of mathematics says, “Review, study, and get enough rest.”

Alan White, professor of philosophy says, “Know everything!”

Do not be too caught up it the holidays and work and friends. Take the professors advice and finish the semester well.
