Some Notes
It is our intention to remain on schedule. We will fall short of this at times. Please don't hesitate to point it out if you think we are unaware of being off track. It is important to us that you receive a quality education and that you receive ample break time so that you might engage the course material with a fresh mind. It is not anticipated that we end the day early very regularly.
Today We Talked About
Day 1 is a big-picture, introduction to the topics that will be discussed throughout the week.

Day 2 is all about inputs to the risk analysis. We also introduce the HEC-FDA software for a light first hands-on experience. We wrap up with a discussion about life safety.

Socialization
We are tentatively planning to convene at Woodstock's Pizza after class on Tuesday. They have food and drink.
You are encouraged to socialize otherwise to the extent that you're inclined to do so. Space availability can be limited, so having everyone in one place at one time is difficult. But after-hours socialization can be some of the most rewarding activities at PROSPECT trainings, so it is highly encouraged that you find the time to mix it up.
Some good options for socialization:
- Food and Drink
- Froggy's AKA Tommy J's Grill
- Tres Hermanas
- Village Bakery
- Cafe Bernardo
- Wednesday Farmer's Market
- Just Drink
- Dunloe Brewing
- University of Beer
- Temple Coffee
- Davis Beer Shoppee
- Other
- Regal Davis Movie Theater
- The University Arboretum
- Bicycles available for check-out if you stay at the Garden Inn
