E S P E C I A L LY F O R S T U D E N T S Coffee with a Member This wonderful program connects INFORMS students with some of INFORMS most enthusiastic members for 15-minute impromptu meetings and some sage INFORMS advice. We know the Annual Meeting can be a bit overwhelming and are hoping these casual meetings will make students more comfortable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic about both the meeting and INFORMS. Student attendees were offered the opportunity to sign up before the meeting on a first-come, first-served basis (it is not possible to sign up onsite in San Francisco). We will follow up after the meeting with a short survey to the students and members who participated to help us improve the program for future meetings.
