Only two weeks to go until Open Day at the University of Adelaide – that’s Sun August 17. If you can come along, make sure you check out what’s happening in the world of sciences. If you can’t, do me a favor and tell someone who can!
Be sure to drop by the sciences marquee near the main stairs (number 2 on this map).
Just a short walk from there is the Bragg lecture theatre where you can have a crack at Laser TAG ing. Trust me its fun – make sure you bring your phone and have bluetooth switched on. I need at least a dozen or so people with bluetooth phone and web skills to upload their masterpiece to the Web and to tag it with uofaoday .
And hey, take lots of pics-n-vids while visiting open day – upload the to the web – tag em with uofaoday and you never know what might happen.
