Dem Fest people: I have a question about HT University/locations!

[Bouncy Ball]

I've printed off the agenda for Dem Fest and all that and I know most of the sessions, etc. will be held on the campus of Hudson-Tillotson University, but where IS that? I went to the HTU website and it gave surprisingly little information, no campus map, etc.

Also, the Dem Fest agenda doesn't say WHERE on campus the sign in is going to be on Saturday morning. The student union? I'm assuming this is a pretty small school, but it's giving me fits trying to figure out what's where. And I don't live in Austin and have a bad sense of direction, so there's that, too. ;-)

Thanks for any help!

Edit, is there any way we could meet up Saturday morning during sign in? Just so I am with some DUers? I'm staying with someone who isn't going to Dem Fest...

1. HT is on East Seventh Street

From Interstate 35, head East on E. Seventh. You'll pass the State Cemetery on the left (worth a visit if you're into that sort of thing). A few blocks further along (no light @ intersection), turn left on Chalmers. There will be a couple of parking lots on that street.

Saturday morning registration is at the Student Union. Hmmm, maybe we should have a few signs to guide people there... As part of your registration materials, there will be a campus map.

2. Ok thanks, that was a big help.

I did find it on Google maps and printed off a zoomed out and a zoomed in version, just in case, but it looks pretty simple to get to.

Thanks for your help!

3. you're probably already there

but in case you get this message:

(1) here's a link to a campus map so you can find the right buildings, etc. http://democracyfortexas.org/Demfest/map.pdf.

(2) you can look for me if you want. I know a few DUers -- the Houston folks -- am looking forward to meeting the Dallas ones. We can hunt them down together if you like! (my plan so far is to wander through crowds muttering, "Crispin?" "Crispin?" until somebody turns around. lemme know if you can improve on that one a bit.)

I'll PM you a good description of what I look like. :hi:
