We'll gather at the Science Mall, which is the grassy area between Kettler and Neff Hall, to view the eclipse. The closest parking areas to the event are located in lots 4 and 5. 

Details and other educational and social activities will be announced later. Keep tuned! Please contact physics department for questions.
