12/15 Reached out to people at GWU and through State Dept - we'll see what comes back

12/15 determining if it is a good space for this sort of thing
12/15 Waiting for intro to Patrick Timony - 12/19 reminder sent
12/20 It's a good possibility - need to verify wifi and 24 hr accessibility issues, but they already have some programs that would make for good projects at the codeathon also!!

Silona? |
12/15 is this too far to walk - should I try to get this space? [LINK]
I think it is doable and I like college campuses since they often have better layouts
