All of the students in this pic also happen to be doing astronomy or physics research this summer.  Pretty cool. <\/p>\n<p>Some good connections were forged during this dinner (with Steve Boughn as a special guest), including us realizing that Sarah Sofia (&#8217;14) and Miriam Fuchs (&#8217;13) were both going to be in Boston during the American Astronomical Society meeting.  So we included them in our fun.
