THE BOSTON AREA PHYSICS CALENDAR

The Boston Area Physics Calendar is published weekly during the
academic year by The Martin Fisher School of Physics at Brandeis
University.  You may send your announcements by  e-mail
(bapc@binah.cc.brandeis.edu) or FAX (617-736-2915).  We cannot 
accept announcements by telephone. Entries should reach us no 
later than 11:00 am on the Monday  preceding the week of the event. 
ENTRIES RECEIVED AFTER THE DEADLINE WILL NOT BE PUBLISHED.

Parking for Seminars at Harvard

In the past, the Harvard Physics Department has offered parking
in the lots adjacent to the Department to members of other
universities who attend afternoon seminars.  This is no longer
possible, except in special cases (e.g., those who have
difficulty walking).

Parking is available in the lot at 38 Oxford St., opposite the
end of Everett St., a short block north of the entrance to the
Physics Department lot. If there is a guard at the gate to this
lot, you should tell him you are going to a physics seminar. He
will admit you and give you a card to put on your dashboard.  If
there is no guard on duty, leave a note saying you are attending
a physics seminar on your dashboard. (If you don't leave a note,
you might be ticketed.)
