Schedule of Events


The day's events are mostly in Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø's Oceanography and Physics Building (OCNPS), the Mills Godwin Building (MGB), and the Pretlow Planetarium. These buildings are all next to each other on Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø's campus and next to the parking garage on the corner of 43rd St and Elkhorn Ave. Some events will run constantly from 1:00-5:00 while others have specific starting times. We recommend you arrive to these a few minutes early to ensure you get seats. Also, if the weather cooperates, we try to have a couple activities planned for outdoors.
