Summary
If Supersymmetry is realized in nature, it may give rise to
spectacular events that
could be discovered early in LHC running. We discuss search
strategies based on the
generic event signatures of high jet multiplicity and large
missing transverse
momentum, optionally including leptons and photons in the
final state. Techniques for
estimating the contributions from Standard Model background
processes using data are
presented and tested using early 7 TeV data.
Finally, prospects for an early discovery are reviewed.
