The Student Organization for Cognitive Science (SOCS)

The Student Organization for Cognitive Science (SOCS) will hold their callout meeting on Tuesday, September 13, 2011 at 5:30pm in the Eigenmann Formal Lounge. The Formal Lounge can be reached by entering through the front doors and walking past the elevators to the right.
There will be signs posted!

In addition to free pizza and good company, expect some healthy rational competition in the first-ever Cognitive Olympics, after which the contestant demonstrating the most gripping control over her or his own mind will be crowned Bloomington's Greatest Rationalist! And this contestant will win a fabulous prize fit for a rational thinker.

SOCS is a community for students interested in cognitive science and related fields: philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, artificial intelligence, anthropology, education, mathematics and more!
The club is open to majors and non-majors.

Weekly meetings are held every Tuesday at 5:30pm. Meetings include discussion of articles and TED Talks bearing on exciting current issues in the sciences of mind, as well as free pizza! This semester will include three discussion dinners with faculty, at least one laboratory tour, and several talks by graduate students and professors.
