Hi, I'm Aaron. I grew up in Los Angeles, and went to the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. My undergraduate degree is in Materials Science. Like you guys, I will be starting the PhD program in Chemistry this fall. I think it would be best if we band together early in order to make everything from picking a research advisor to finding an apartment easier. How many of you have profiles on Friendster, MySpace, or The Facebook? Who has already selected a research advisor so far? I am undecided.
My friendster profile is here.
