Finding the University; etc.

The San Francisco State University Campus is on the west side  of
19th  Avenue  (Hwy  1), between the cross streets of Holloway and
Winslow.   Thornon Hall is the 9 story building behind the only 8 
story building (Hensil Hall)  on 19th  Avenue  and  it  is at the 
northeastern corner of campus.

MUNI and SAMTRANS bus lines and the M street car pass by the SFSU
Campus.  BART  stations are about 1 mile away.    MUNI busses can
get you the rest of the way if you take BART.

You will be competing with afternoon and  evening  students  (and
faculty) for parking places.  Allow 15-30 minutes to find a park-
ing place and to walk to Thornton Hall. Some handicap parking  is
available  on  19th Avenue and Holloway.  Most parking on streets
near campus if free, but beware, many places near campus have a 2
hour limit before 6pm. Be sure to check the street signs.

There is a large parking structure on campus.  The only  entrance
to  the  parking  structure is on the west side of campus by Lake
Merced and the golf course.  To use the parking  structure  costs
$2.00.  (This may have gone up recently.) Parking tickets start
at $10.00 and towing charges for parking on private property (the
nearby shopping center, etc.) are substantially higher.

We have no idea how many people will  want  to attend,  so  your
guess  is as good as ours about how early to arrive to get a good
seat.
