RC will be co-hosting this workshop with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics! Software Carpentry (<http://software-carpentry.org/>) is an organization dedicated to teaching scientists modern software engineering skills that they'll actually use in their day-to-day work. SWC develops the curriculum for these workshops and provides trained, experienced teachers, so it's a really great opportunity to learn how to code well in a proven* system developed precisely for the research community.Information on the workshop itself and the materials covered can be found at <http://iglpdc.github.io/2014-11-07-harvard/>. There are only a limited number of slots available! Don't be discouraged, though, as we will run this workshop several times throughout the year.  
*When:* All day, Friday-Saturday, November 7-8 --- note: this is soon!!  
*What:* Task automation with the Unix shell;
