CalSO June 5-6

<p>Who's going? I'm leaving tomorrow around 2:00 to stay the night before (from LA). </p>

<p>What should we bring? Any important documents (birth certificate, immunization records, etc..)?</p>

<p>Me (: From Northern Virginia, staying overnight tomorrow.</p>

<p>I think they said to bring a photo ID (to get the Cal Card thing), the confirmation email they sent when you booked your CalSO, pen + paper, comfy shoes, a sweater and a backpack. And obviously clothes etc. I don’t think they mentioned birth certificates/other officialy documents (if it helps, I’m not planning on bringing them).</p>

<p>(from the confirmation email)

<p>Should we bring umbrellas or is the campus decently covered?</p>

<p>I’m going to bring an umbrella because I imagine we are going to be doing a lot of walking in the open.</p>

<p>no need for umbrella unless raining.</p>

<p>bumping this up</p>

<p>Are you all bringing a backpack in addition to a duffle bag (or something of the sort) or just a backpack to pack clothes, etc.?</p>

<p>It’s gonna rain. Bring an umbrella.</p>

<p>FluorescentBulb — they said bring a backpack/bag to carry paperwork. We’re only there for one overnight so I’m just gonna bring two beach bags.</p>

<p>can we bring a small luggage?</p>

<p>There will be a storage area set up to hold your luggage before you get into your dorm room and after you check out but before leaving for your trip home.</p>

<p>Do you guys think it is okay to leave early? cuz I have a night class at 6PM at a cc, which is about 30 min drive from Cal.</p>

<p>no need to bring an umbrella</p>
