We are going on a trip to see the Roman bust exhibit at the Fred Jones museum at OU this Saturday, the 6th.

Here is the page about parking at the Fred Jones museum at OU. We should have plenty of space to park. There is no fee for the museum.

If you are meeting us at the museum, then meet there at 1 pm. If you need a ride or you have space for people, meet at UCO in the Liberal Arts parking lot, east side at 12. (Its the side with the statue of flying books.)
