# Graduate Student Number Theory / Representation Theory Seminar, University of Wisconsin – Madison

• When: Tuesdays, 2:30 PM – 3:30 PM
• Where: B321 Van Vleck

The purpose of this seminar is to have a talk on each Tuesday by a graduate student to help orient ourselves for the Number Theory Seminar talk on the following Thursday. These talks are generally aimed at beginning graduate students, and try to explain some of the background, terminology, and ideas for the Thursday talk.

As a part of the Graduate Number Theory Seminar this semester, we will be conducting a mini SAGE workshop (SAW) on the 16th of November, 2019. If you would like to participate in these, please email the organizers: Brandon Boggess, Solly Parenti, Soumya Sankar, Connor Simpson.
