*NOTE on room location: The PRIEC meeting room is on the first floor of the new Social and Behavioral Sciences Building. Follow the red brick road after you exit the parking structure. There is a wide brick walkway across Pereira Drive from the structure, with plants and a wall with trellised vines to the right. The meeting room opens on to the patio behind the wall; the entrance is just ahead past the vehicle barriers.

**NOTE on UC parking permits: Faculty or staff parking permits from other UC campuses, as long as they are monthly or longer, can be used in any general parking spot at UCI, including in the garage. Just display your home campus permit properly; no need to get a UCI day pass. Caution: permits from other campuses are not valid for reserved spots (AR) or for short term or metered spots. Student parking permits from other campuses are not valid at UCI.
