Directions
This year's workshop will be held at Oakes College Room 105.
Please click here for a Oakes College Map in PDF. This map also includes your Check In and Housing Location.
If you will be participating in AGORA, August 17-18, it will be at ISB 102. [View PDF map]
Directions to University of California Santa Cruz http://www.ucsc.edu/visit/maps-directions.html
Housing
The cost is $98.25/night and includes linens, parking, breakfast & dinner in a nearby college cafeteria, but no cleaning or janitorial services.
Choosing the on campus housing may be convenient as it will be in close proximity to the Oakes 105 auditorium where the Galaxy Workshop will meet.
Below is a list of local lodging options as well.
Parking
Please enter the UCSC campus through the West Entrance and follow the signs toward Oakes College. Our conference will be parking in Lot 162 and at the back of the parking lot there will be a check-in table on Monday morning. If you have paid for parking, you can pick your parking permits up there; if you still need to pay for parking, you will be able to do so there as well. Keep in mind that if you have a car on campus you must have a permit; the officers ticket regularly, even in the summer. Once you have parked, there will be signs to Oakes 105 & Oakes 106 where you can check in.
Airport shuttles
Shuttle services from the airport to campus or to your lodging are available for a fee:
Public transport
Public transportation options to, from, and around Santa Cruz can be done through the Santa Cruz Metro.
The weekday rates at the Mission Inn are $89.95 (tax not included). Please mention you are here for the Galaxy Workshop at UCSC.
If you will be staying an additional week for collaboration, either before or after the workshop, you may want to try the following suggestions for a bit longer term and possibly less expensive housing:
In addition we have a listing from Academic HR, which contains many housing options for extended stays, typically in faculty/UCSC employee houses. This list is available upon request.
For questions about accommodation contact Sue Grasso at "hipacc@ucsc.edu"
Funding
UC-HIPACC (University of California High Performance AstroComputing Center) is co-sponsoring the 2013 Galaxy Formation Workshop.
A major goal of UC-HIPACC is to encourage collaboration on computational astrophysics between groups at UC campuses and the affiliated DOE Labs. We are willing to help with lodging support for UC students interested in attending the Galaxy Workshop. If you are interested in UCSC housing support please send an email to Sue Grasso at "hipacc@ucsc.edu"
If you have a free evening during the workshop, consider attending an outdoor performance by the acclaimed repertory company Shakespeare Santa Cruz.
