Unfortunately, there's really only me and Dave. Perhaps he would be willing to provide some transport also if some of you would chip in and fill up his gas tank (no small expense nowadays). Otherwise, it certainly wouldn't hurt to have at least a few people with vehicles at the meeting; most of the decent restaurants for lunch and dinner are off-campus. I'm not sure how many meals are included with rent at the dorms.
