HoToGAMIT (How to Get Around MIT - CIO Symposium Edition)


Finding Kresge
The Symposium takes place in Kresge Auditorium, 48 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02139. Kresge is well receded from Massachusetts Avenue and may be hard to see from the street. Please refer to the map on the logistics page. You can’t miss the tent in front of Kresge; the tent may be a better landmark.

Registration Desk is in the Tent
When you arrive at the Symposium, please go to the tent outside of Kresge to sign in and get your badge, bag, and tickets for lunch breakout sessions, if you preregistered for a lunchtime breakout.

Lunch
To attend the lunch breakout sessions, you must obtain a ticket at registration. Some breakout sessions may be full. The Networking Lunch in Rockwell is open to everyone. This year will feature "Birds of a Feather" lunch tables. Many of our speakers, including MIT Sloan CIO Leadership Award finalist, Andi Karaboutis of Dell, will be participating in the discussions. The final table topics can be found here

Luggage
If need be, you can store your luggage during the Symposium in the basement of Kresge Auditorium. As you enter Kresge from the street level, go down the stairs to the bottom level. The men's room and the luggage room are on the left (women’s room to the right). Standard checkin processes apply, i.e. you'll get a ticket for your luggage. The room will be manned to approximately 7:30 PM.

Gold Shirts
The Gold Shirt team will provide directions and answer your questions. You can’t miss them and don’t hesitate to use them.
