For those of you who came to the workshop, hopefully you were able to gain a little more information about CogSci.  If you didn’t, I hope at least we cleared up some confusions about CogSci.  Well, I had fun answering questions, so I enjoyed it :P .  Anyway, thank you guys for coming.  Good luck on choosing classes and all that fun stuff :D !

and good luck on midterms for those who are having the second ones…

 

best,
