Saturday, July 24th
at
Stanford University
Building 550 - Room 126 or Room
200
|
SVFIG will meet at Stanford
in Building 550 (aka Peterson Building). Its relationship to Terman
Engineering Center (the former meeting place) can be found on these maps -
Slide1 or Slide2.
There is open parking on
weekends. Park in any A or C or metered space.
Enter the building from
Panama Mall. The door is labeled "Building 550 - Mechanical Engineering
Design Group". For up to 20 people, Room 126 will be used. Once inside the
building walk down three steps and continue straight ahead into the atrium. The
meeting room is on the left. For more than 20 people, walk up the stairs just
inside the doorway. Room 200 is on the left at the top of the stairs. (In the
event that the building door is locked, there will either be someone on duty to
let you in or a cellphone number to call. Do not ask Stanford students to
let you in and do not enter the building behind students.) |

Temporary wireless Internet
access at the meeting can be arranged by sending an email request to Dave Jaffe
(dljaffe -at- stanford.edu). |
