To: <SIGACT-MEMBERS@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Dear Colleagues:

Since many new PhD students are not SIGACT members (they should join!), we do not have an easy way of reaching them. It would be valuable to pass this important message from Prof. Teng to theory students in your departments.

Thanks - samirÂ

Dear TCS Students:

SIAM has today reopened the application portal for SODA21 Student Registration Waiver.ÂThe new deadline will be this Friday, January 8 at 11:59pm EST.Â

SODA21 will be held virtuallyÂon Jan. 10 - Jan. 13, 2021.

Please note that having paper(s) in SODA and its associated Symposiums is not a requirement. For this year's application, the letter of recommendation from advisors is not required as well.ÂÂThe goal of the support from Google, Microsoft, and ACM SIGACT is to increase opportunity for students to attend this premier TCS conference.ÂÂ

Looking forward to seeing you in SODA'21.

Shang-Hua TengÂ

On Behalf of SODA Steering Committee
