April's meeting place

[Robert Romito]

Hi Everyone.  Sorry I missed the last meeting.  

I think that working with another user group  is a great idea.  A LUG 
partnership could open a lot of linux doors to WNY.  I think this option 
should be option #1.  I am investigating a backup plan, however, in case 
this option falls through.  My father-in-law-to-be (July 12 :-) ) is a 
department head at Daemen College.  Daemen is around Main St.  &  Harlem 
Rd.  There is plenty of free parking.

As a part time student in the computer science program at UB,  I am aware that UB has a LUG  (for students only) and the infrastructure to support it.  I also know many member in this NFLUG know UB (or ex UB students) students.  Some of them post to NFLUG  from time to time.

I don't know what UB's overall attitude would be toward a non - profit computer club using their facilities, but I would imagine that UB's LUG could be an ally in obtaining UB's permission.  It could be pitched as an "educational" (emphasis)  community service. UB has an entire division call Millard Fillmore Collage that is for continuing professional education (a.k.a. adult education) All they can say is no.  However, if they say yes (even with conditions) it is a convenient location and they are 'wired' for sound.
