Winter SOCIAL MIXER: RU Connected?
Alums met to celebrate the victory of this year's Rutgers football team with fellow alums in the Rutgers
Club of SoCal. For the past almost 3 years, RU alums and friends have been meeting quarterly in
Beverly Hills or Hollywood to interact with other alumni in SoCal. The casual atmosphere makes it easy
to come after work. And even if you can’t come exactly at 7:00 pm, it doesn’t matter because we’ll be
there– show up when you can. There are give-aways and the delicious Scarlet Knight cocktail will be
mixed and served to the RU alumni at the bar! This time we went back to the famous Roosevelt Hotel.

Griffith Park
Observatory
|
Los Angeles, CA
Visit the newly re-opened Griffith Park Observatory. Meet at Hollywood & Highland to take the bus to
the Observatory.
Griffith Observatory's unique architecture and setting, compelling programmatic offerings, and cinematic exposure have made it one of
the most famous and visited landmarks in southern California. Tens of millions have come to walk the inside of the building, view the live
planetarium shows, or simply gaze out towards the coast and the heavens. This cultural and scientific icon owes its existence to the
dream of one man, Griffith Jenkins Griffith, and to the dedicated scientists and public servants who worked to fulfill his vision of making
astronomy and observation accessible to all.
We will meet at 9:45 a.m. in Hollywood, and alight the shuttle bus to the Griffith Observatory. Afterward, we will have lunch at a local
Hollywood eatery. (Lunch costs are not included)
WHEN: 9:45 am; Sunday, March 25, 2007
WHERE: Shuttle Bus at Hollywood and Highland
