There will be a memorial service honoring Igor Vulfovich 
Slobodkin here at Tufts on Monday, February 26, 1996.  
	We hope that as many of you as are able will come.

	At the memorial service, Carol Kumamoto, Igor's advisor, 
will give a talk explaining the progress Igor made in his research.  
The Trustees of Tufts University have approved the awarding of 
Igor's Ph.D. degree.  The presentation of this degree will be 
announced by the Dean.

	During the remainder of the service, there will be a variety 
of remembrances of him.  Slides will be shown.  A video will be 
shown which includes a few scenes of Igor, and reminiscences 
will be read by people from his department.  We will have a 
display of Igor's photography, and the poster he made of his 
research, set up for viewing afterward.

	The service will be at 3:00 PM in the Atrium Auditorium, 
which is down one level from the large atrium in the North 
Building, at 800 Washington Street.  If you can't find it you can 
call the information desk in the atrium at 636-7700.

	If you can, please come.
