Directions to College Park Campus:
The AV Williams building is located near the main Route 1 entrance
to the University of Maryland, College Park Campus. Take exit 25 from the
Capital Beltway (Route 495/95) to U.S. Route 1 South, then take a right at
the first entrance to the University of Maryland. (This will be just past
the Jerry's Sub Shop). After turning into campus you will want to stay to
the right and go down Paint Branch Drive. The AV Williams building is the
`L' shaped building on the right across from the parking lot and behind the
Systems Research Center building. Go into the main entrance and turn to
your right. The AV Williams building code is #115 on campus maps.
Where you can Park:
Unless you have a valid University parking permit, you can't park in
an unmetered space without possibility getting a parking ticket. The best
place to park is probably in the Parking Garage 2 structure. To get to this
garage, follow the directions above, but do not stay to your right.
Instead, continue up to the traffic circle and take a right. The parking
garage will be down a few hundred yards on your left. Lower levels have
two-hour meters, while the upper levels have (I believe) eight-hour meters.
You should probably bring some quarters along...
If you need further directions contact me, curtiss@umiacs.umd.edu,
and I shall try and help.
Thanks to all those interested.
Phil!

In my previous posting, my signature says ``moderator''. This is not the case for bionet.general (it is the case for bionet.biology.computational). I appologize for the mistake. Tah.
