United High School Media '11 Event information

I've attached a schedule of event and a map of campus showing where you need to go.

Students can check in from 12:30 – 1 in Smith Hall Room 154 before the short 1pm Welcome. Then workshops are in Smith Hall and the Communications Building. Media Challenge is also in Smith Hall Room 154 and dinner is in the Don Morris Room in the Memorial Student Center.

I've asked the parking office not to ticket cars in the stadium lot in the afternoon. It is a bit of a hike from there to Smith Hall and I apologize for that, at least it is flat land and looks to be a sunny day.

Look forward to seeing you on Friday.
