You need $4 cash for the parking daily passes, and the parking lot your probably want to try for is the Emeritus Lot, since that is right next to Newman. The permit machines are the bright yellow things in all of the lots. The Parking structure is a small walk. Parking should not be to hard to find at that time. It should be good. -- Matt Hardwick Student / Developer / IT / Tutor On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 5:22 PM, anet dunne wrote: > There is a talk on Modeling and Engineering by a NASA engineer this Friday > night, April 1st, 7pm at SRJC Newman Auditorium (Emeritus Hall).
