I would like to suggest meeting in Phoenix, downtown specifically. There are several fantastic lounge places that server food, beer, and wine all in a comfortable environment/setting. Supporting the downtown economy, especially during the light rail construction, is important to the area. If it works out with locations and such, this would get people to check out downtown, which many never have the chance to do, but really should.

How about afternoonish?
What about moving the date to Friday?

I know what UAT has to offer with the theatre, commons, labs, and other meeting areas, but I feel we should head to a bar or lounge instead.

I once tried to get a few friends to go to a 2600 meeting, about 4 of us. We went to the last known location for the meetings, the cafe at the Biltmore location Borders (or Barnes and Noble? I forget which it is). And... we were the only ones there.

I fail to see what this has to do with students/non-student issues- Think of the school simply as a community gathering place that was offered up for free. Would a community center be better for you?

Did you think I would find that funny or something? I did not. First off, your school, UAT, is not a public place(See: community gathering). It is a private school and its facilities are not open to the general public typically. Of course I am sure they welcome this group :) - Just watch what you say, t

The school is a private institution, however I offered it as an open forum for this gathering.
Maybe you should watch what you say, since you seem to see offense when none was intended.
Again, the school was a simple solution for a free place to gather, as stated previously.

* A central (relative to the valley as a whole) place to meet
* Free facility
* Ample space/seating/place to chat
* Under 21 crowd may attend
I am a professor here, and only suggested the local because it was cheap and easy (waiting for the jokes here)-
The intent never was to make it feel like an 'us' and 'them' thing- I intend on extending invitations to may groups, such as the DC602, DC480, etc...

Anyway, 8-10pm on a Saturday night? Heck I can't even stay awake that late.
I like the coffee shop / brewery idea.
