Graduate Student Award Finalists Compete at 1998 MRS Fall Meeting Thirty-five finalists will compete for the MRS Graduate Student Awards to be presented during the awards ceremony on Thursday, December 3, at 6:00 p.m., in the Boston Marriott Hotel, Salon E. The Graduate Student Award Special Talk Session, in which each finalist gives a 10minute presentation, will be held on Monday, November 30, at 12:00 noon. The finalists, all authors or co-authors of papers to be presented at the 1998 MRS Fall Meeting, were selected on the basis of the quality and thoroughness of their research, the originality and independence of their contributions, and their promise for future achievement in materials research. Following is the list of finalists, their places of study, titles of papers, and the symposium or symposia in which each finalist is participating.
