Checking In

1. Come to the University of Oregon — see References below

2. Check In to your room

   Your first meal is dinner on June 19 with the cafeteria closing at 8pm. (Yes, I write dates in the confusing American way, so 6/19/22 or June 19, 2022 means 19. June 2022.) People generally arrive between noon and 3AM on June 19.

   • If you arrive between 4pm and 8pm on June 19

Turn left/West on 13^th Street Continue West on 13^th Street past Oregon Hall, the three-story brick building on your right, and the Student Health Center, the two-story building on your left, to Deschutes Hall, a three-story brick building on your right. The main door is on the West side, toward the Southwest corner. The building will be locked, but knock or call Jim at 971-533-7546. You will be able to leave your luggage at Deschutes while you get food, use the computer lounge, or generally wait with other OPLSS attendees.

If you are calling a taxi, ask to be picked up at 15^th & University Street. If they don't know where University Street is, tell them is near that creepy old cemetary on campus, and some Italian woman told you to stay away from the cemetary, because today is "La notte dei morti viventi." Since you don't know what that means, you will be waiting by the cemetary.
