2nd, tickets will be available for purchase by check ($13 each) in the KIN main office (spx 56) beginning Wednesday March 6th.

4th, if you are planning to also attend the university commencement (Saturday May 25th), information is here:  http://www.sjsu.edu/commencement/
Please do complete the survey so we can gather highlights about you, the class of 2013, and get some critical information we need for planning.
