  The Club is an forum for graduate students from all disciplines with an interest in Networks. Meetings are bi-weekly and typically include a guided discussion of a network-themed paper. Our 60+ mailing list includes mathematicians, sociologists, economists and students from other disciplines. We welcome undergrads, postdocs and faculty. We are funded by the Center for Applied Mathematics (CAM) and the Institute for Social Studies (Information on joining.)
