<p>Who's planning on attending the reception at the Chancellor's "house"? They have three different days depending on your unit.</p>
<p>i guess i'll go, why wouldn't you?</p>
<p>I was planning on going :) I was just wondering who eles was going.</p>
<p>I'll be there. Unless i forget or something really great comes up. But it won't <em>tear</em> No, the chancellor seems like a great guy. Funny, interesting, physics man . . . so dreamy. Is he Canadian, or did he just teach and live there?</p>
<p>he was the president of the university of toronto</p>
<p>its free food so you best believe ima be there</p>
<p>So, if the invitation says 'business casual' what should we wear?</p>
<p><3,</p>

<p>No flip-flops, jeans or hoochie clothes. You don't have to wear a dress, but definitely don't dress like you're from Santa Cruz!</p>
<p>Is it a day or evening event?</p>
<p>4pm to 6pm... I'm guessing evening..</p>
<p>no jeans? aww man that just kills it for me</p>

<p>I guess its time to hit the mens warehouse</p>
<p>"Don't dress like you're from Santa Cruz"</p>
<p>Uhm...wow, I don't know if I'm just tired/cranky from waking up from an evening nap, but that kinda ticked me off.</p>
<p>I'm in no way the typical hippie child from Santa Cruz. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, but where I live has very little to do with my fashion sense...</p>
<p><3,</p>
<p>Izzie Bear</p>
<p>haha, don't be insulted. i didn't mean it that way. when i went to a professional association conference back east many years ago, i was told not to dress like i am from California. </p>
<p>people outside of California have an image of us all being pinko, liberal, commie, surfers who don't know how to dress.</p>
<p>"I guess its time to hit the mens warehouse"</p>
<p>Don't go out and buy something that you will never wear again. Just be conscious that you will be at a reception with the UC Chancellor, and dress appropriately. </p>
<p>It's all part of growing up...and about your new life as a college student!</p>
<p>haha, yeah i know. i was just over reacting like the sleepy brat i am.</p>
<p>i like 'california comfortable'. i'm all about my flip flops, but then again, i have an immense shoe collection. ill just throw on some low heels and call it a night. </p>
<p>see some of you there....i'll probably be going on whatever night clark kerr was invited...tuesday maybe?</p>

<p>Thanks gsp<em>silicon</em>valley for the various links.</p>
<p>Hmm.. I was just wondering.. am I the only person who feels a collared shirt looks dumb without a tie? Anyways, you can find me at the reception (with a tie, of course!).</p>
<p>TTG</p>
<p>Depends on the shirt, pants, wearer, and how you wear it. It's all about acting.</p>
<p>wahhhh i wont be there. i only arrive in berkeley on the 23rd. ahhhh well.</p>
