Want to maximize your positive social impact? The effective altruism movement<https://www.effectivealtruism.org/> has come a long way in identifying the most impactful causes<https://80000hours.org/articles/cause-selection/>, charities<http://www.givewell.org/>, and careers<https://80000hours.org/career-reviews/> - and they're probably not what you think! At our first meeting of the term Friday (today) 4:30-6pm in Collis 219 we're going to give a brief introduction to effective altruism and then brainstorm plans for the winter.
