Daily RTGXI 2002 Schedule*

*As of 10/8/2002 - Subject to Change

Venue Change:

Due to upcoming construction in the Keystone Theater Building, we have moved some of our workshops and panels to another building called The Rhodes Center. This used to be part of the University of Puget Sound Law School. Very nice site. The Law School itself was sold to Seattle University in Seattle a couple of years ago. Not the building, the school; books and professors and other movable objects. Funny, eh? The Rhodes Center is a privately owned business which houses a small conference canter on the fifth floor. The University of Washington is sponsoring this site. The good news: It is two blocks from the Sheraton. The bad news: It is further away from the other venues.
