The [http://www.com.washington.edu University of Washington Department of Communication] is hosting the event and all of our events '''except the Saturday morning lectures''' will be held in the '''Communications building (CMU)''' on the Seattle UW campus. This includes the Friday setup and the and all of the afternoon projects. You can find the building on [https://maps.google.com/maps?q=CMU+Building&hl=en&ll=47.655675,-122.306435&spn=0.018732,0.016394&sll=47.613028,-122.342064&sspn=0.599907,0.524597&hq=CMU+Building&t=m&z=16 this Google map] or on [http://www.washington.edu/maps/ this campus map from UW]. | |||
Because we have grown so big, we have had to move the lectures into a larger lecture hall than the CMU building has available. Please meet at '''Savery Hall 260''' ([http://uw.edu/maps/?sav map]) on '''the three Saturday mornings at 9:45'''. It is about a five minute walk from the Communications building. Unfortunately, most of the doors to Savery Hall are locked on weekends. The door on the '''west side of the building''' (i.e., the one nearest Kane Hall) should be open. | |||
