It should be noted that some students say that the topics chosen by invited speakers are becoming increasingly distant from our research interests; there are a few answers to this criticism. First, faculty convening the seminar are usually very open to suggestions from us about who to invite. In recent years we have instituted a very successful formal speaker nomination process by Ph.D. students which the faculty seem to like a lot. The speaker nomination process is usually performed by the BPP peer advisor. Second, you can still learn a lot by reading and thinking critically about a paper not directly in your research field.
