The changes proposed are:
#Presentations be generally limited to 40 minutes (45 was originally suggested, but by the end of class it was determined that only 40 minutes would be available). There would be exception exceptions to this for Job Market candidates and for other people who wanted full slots and could get approval for them from the faculty.#More faculty will (sic) start attending student seminar.
It was envisaged that (1) would allow for the presentation of raw ideas, rather than 'polished work', and would limit 'unconstructive criticism'. (2) would apparently get more faculty involvement with students and afford presenters feedback from faculty.
