-* Gainsville does not have wifi capacity
-* Should hear from Asheville, NC this week
-* Call participants ranked Durham and Asheville as top choices

-'''Annie Keyes discussed SWAG
-* SWAG: (bags, moleskine notebooks, pens)
-'''Winter Meeting Theme Discussion
-* Frontiers in Earth Sciences Big Data
-* No sub-theme for winter
