SOT Ride Share<br />
SOT is <strong>of</strong>fering a Ride Sharing Program<br />
in conjunction with the <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Meeting</strong>.<br />
For those who live close enough to the San<br />
Francisco area or those who do not wish to<br />
fly, you may want to consider the Ride Share<br />
Program. Avoid airport hassles by driving<br />
and make it easier for other scientists to<br />
attend by sharing rides. Students especially<br />
appreciate ways to make the meeting even<br />
more economical.<br />
Once you have registered for the <strong>Annual</strong><br />
<strong>Meeting</strong>, you can access the Ride Sharing<br />
Program. You can indicate whether you want<br />
to drive or be a passenger, and then see a list<br />
<strong>of</strong> others who have signed up. It will be up to<br />
you to match your plans with someone else<br />
who is registered, and then to remove your<br />
names when you have travel plans in place.<br />
