Good afternoon everyone!<br>
The last official orientation event has arrived! Having had a taste of
typical Boston weather this weekend, we are sure that you are finally
settling in to the MIT lifestyle.<br><br>
<b>Monday, September 20<br>
</b><i>6pm
onwards</i> Boston
Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles [Departs Ashdown] (information included at
the bottom of this email)<br><br>
Also, this is not on the schedule, but Dean Staton and the Graduate
Students Office are sponsoring a special Welcome Reception for Incoming
Women Graduate Students. At this event, there will be a number of faculty
and administrators present to discuss many issues, including counseling
and support services. The event will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 21 @
4:30PM in the Chipman Room (8-314). For questions, please call Dean
Staton at 253-4869.<br><br>
Please look forward to a final wrap-up email from us...Thanks, and see
you tonight!<br><br>

Hello all of you. <br>
If you are not attending the Red Sox game on Monday, Sept. 20, please
disregard this email. This email contains:<br>
-Departure locations and instructions<br>
-Seating Instructions<br>
-Directions<br><br>
<b>Departure Locations and Instructions;<br>
</b>We will be departing from 2 locatons: Ashdown house (for those who
want to walk over to Fenway) and the Kendall T-Stop (for those who would
like to take the T). Please note that both groups will be departing at
6PM sharp. For those of you new to the area, you will see that during a
Red Sox game, the T often runs much slower, and will require for you to
be boarding the Red Line no later than 6PM. The T-route will be;
(starting at Kendall) Red Line inbound to Park St., then Park St. (B, C,
or D lines) to Kenmore Square.<br><br>
<b>Seating Instructions:<br>
</b>We have purchased a large block of seats. However, we need everyone
to sit in their assigned seat (the seat number is on the ticket). If you
purchased tickets for yourself and a guest that are not adjacent, please
go to your assigned seat first and then try to exchange with someone.
This has worked in the past and there shouldn't be any problems.
Nonetheless, Sylvain and I, and the two event coordinators, will be on
hand to ensure that everything goes smoothly.<br><br>
<b>Directions;<br>
</b>If you plan to find your own way over to Fenway Park, please get
directions from the Red Sox homepage at;<br>

Fenway Park is just south of Kenmore Square in Boston (near the big CITGO
sign!).<br><br>
Lastly, even though this may seem obvious, please bring your ticket. It
will be required for admission. <br><br>
If there are any questions, please reply to this email. We are looking
forward to an exciting game! See you on Monday!<br><br>
Eric & Sylvain<br><br>
