Welcome to the HEP Journal Club (JC) home page. The HEP Journal Club meets every Wednesday at 4:00 pm in the KITP small seminar room. JC presents lectures of general interest to graduate students covering a wide range of topics including (but not limited to) string theory, high energy theory and phenomenology, gravity and mathematical physics. Feel free to suggest topics, articles, or speakers, or to volunteer to help present a talk. Please send comments via email to virmani "at" physics.ucsb.edu.

First year students are particularly encouraged to attend and give talks!
