Boston Linux & UNIX was originally founded in 1994 as part of The Boston Computer Society. We meet on the third Wednesday of each month at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in Building E51.

Getting to E51-376:

Directions on getting to the Tang Center (Building E51) parking lot are below.

E51 has a small parking lot in back, and the back entrance leads into the first floor. Enter the building through the parking lot entrance, and follow the corridor to the left.

There's an elevator at the end of the short corridor, on the right. Take this elevator to the third floor. When you reach the third floor, follow the corridor to the right, past the men's room. Room 376 will be on your right.
