Summer Seminars
Summer 2009
Fridays
1-3
p.m.
The
popular Summer Seminars series, coordinated by Marilyn MacBride, will
commence May 29 and continue until Aug. 7. NOTE:
The seminars are NOT in the same location as previous years, but are in
several different buildings. Consult your campus map!
There will be two seminars each Friday during the summer. Where
only one seminar is shown, that presentation will occupy both sessions.
Important: Be sure to renew your
membership so you will have a parking pass valid all summer. The
current-year pass expires June 30.
NOTE:
Cracker Barrel continues all summer! From May 15 until Aug. 28,
it will meet in Sequoia 450 from 11 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Bring lunch and
opinions!
