Sample slides are very old, need to changes this.

Are you thinking of just updating these, or making a completely new set?

Has Beamer changed and these don't work (well) anymore, or are there things you'd like to have illustrated that aren't here or…?

Since this was a long time ago, using a more recent example (in terms on context, but also the presentation structure) would be helpful.

Here are a few senior seminar papers and talks that are on GitHub already:

We might be able to use one of those as an example, especially since they show the full structure. We might also want to have a short list of good examples with links to GitHub repos.

Also we might want to update the example talk (and paper) in Senior_seminar_templates and link to them more in this site.

Oh, I think I was misunderstanding the comment. You meant student samples, not the LaTeX stub/example.

I definitely agree that continuing to update the student samples (for both papers and talks) makes a lot of sense. Should we try to have a set of features we want to highlight in the samples? I think, for example, that we have some particularly nice examples things like:

Making sure we have good examples of different features we'd like to highlight might be useful, and help make sure we don't lose an example of an important feature in the process of updating papers/slides.
