We are due for our weekly meeting this<b> Wednesday, Dec. 4<sup>th</sup>, at 9 a.m. CDT</b>; however, I cannot host the meeting due to our last faculty meeting this fall semester, scheduled for our Dec. 4th reading day from 9 to 11 AM CDT. If you would like
this week's meeting to be held, please volunteer to host it; otherwise, we can cancel it and reconvene on Dec. 18<sup>th</sup> since I will be in Italy next week for the JLab 22 GeV upgrade workshop.</div>

With that said, there is not much cooking and calibration-wise update than what I shared with you last week due to the Thanksgiving break. We expect to hear some news about that and discuss the next steps for RG-D during this week's CalCom meeting. A summary
of related activities will be reported after the Italian trip by Mathieu and me. Furthermore, it's also the end of the semester here, and the final exams are starting; thus, some students may not have much to report. In any case, I look forward to hearing
your preferences, and we will go with the majority. An update about the meeting status will be shared tomorrow night. </div>
