January 20 Meeting Information
The agenda for the upcoming HealthLINE meeting has been sent to the listserv, so let me know if you didn't get an e-mail.
How to get to UT Southwestern.
A campus map.
Parking:
Parking is not free at UT Southwestern. Costs vary from $2 to $5. When clicking on the campus map you will see that Lot 7 is reserved for visitor parking. If that lot is full then overflow parking is available at a lot near Harry Hines Boulevard and Lofland Street.
Directions to E6.200:
We will meet in the Multi Modality Education and Videoconference Center in room E6.200. The E Building (otherwise known as the Fred F. Florence Bioinformation Center) is indicated on the above campus map. E6.200 is in the same building as the Library but cannot be accessed from within the Library.
When entering the E Building you will see the Library. To the left of the Library you will see a rather large corridor. You will notice when entering this corridor that you are walking toward three rather large seals. These are not the lovable aquatic creatures that bark and balance beach balls on their snouts but rather the official seals of the state, the university, and...I don’t know what the third one is. In any event, the corridor jogs to the left at these seals. At this jog you will notice a bank of three elevators to your left. Take one of these elevators (please, only one) to the sixth floor. Upon emerging from these elevators you will see, to your right, an intersection of two corridors. There is an entrance to E6.200 at this intersection and another that is not far down the righthand corridor.
