HAWC is planning to have one or two students this year. Mexican Division of Particles and Fields summer program run by Heriberto Castilla A competition for students, undergraduate of the last two year or graduate students of the first year. We select the best according to academic capacity HAWC is planning to have one or two students this year. Jordan Goodman HAWC Review - December 2007
