Registration: There is no registration fee, but in order to plan for refreshments and for the dinner, we need to know who is coming. Please register in advance if possible.
Location: McDonnell Douglas Engineering Auditorium, on the UCI campus (building 311, located at G/H8 on this map). This is the same location as last year, but not in the Mathematics building. There is construction west of the auditorium building, so it is preferable to approach the auditorium from the south or east.
Dinner: Dinner will be at the Hokkaido Restaurant, a Japanese & Chinese buffet, at 6pm. Cost will be $20/person ($10 for students) total, including the buffet, soft drinks, tax and tip (pay at the restaurant). You must register for the dinner. Hokkaido is located at 4200 Scott Dr, Newport Beach, about 10 minutes (by car) from the UCI campus.
Take Bison east into campus. Now there are two options:
To park on campus you will need to purchase a parking permit.
Parking is $7 (or maybe $5, nobody seems to know)
for the full day, payable in 5, 10, or 25 cent coins, or $1 or $5 bills (exact change required).
Quarter or annual parking permits from other UC campuses are honored at UCI.
