Hi all!
This is a last minute announcement that we are going to have a last minute
location change to:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<
שריינתי את אולם הולצבלט 007 למועדון הלינקס בימי ראשון בין השעות 18:00-20:00
החל מה-25.10.09 (אחת לשבועיים) עד חופשת סמסטר (ז"א ה-17.01.10).
>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Or in English - the Holzblat hall (No. 007) in the corridor of the Exact
Sciences department (not Schreiber building) next to the Lev Auditorium. There
will be a sign on the door.
Regards,
Shlomi Fish
