Latest news During the summer months, the Penn Go Society will be meeting in the lobby of the Creese Student Center, 3210 Chestnut Street, at Drexel University. Our next meeting will be on Wednesday, July 1, at 5:30 p.m. Players are asked to bring their own Go sets, as we lack storage facilities at Drexel. The Penn Go Society is forming an Intercollegiate Go Team for the 2009-10 academic year, to compete against other universities in the area (Rutgers, Princeton, etc. ). If you are an undergraduate or graduate student at UPenn and would like to sign on, please contact either Matt B. or Peter N. at the email addresses below. We will need a total of nine players. Unable to meet us on Wednesday evenings? Then join us online, any time of the week, in our club room on the K.G.S. Go Server! You can find us on K.G.S. under "Rooms / Room List / Clubs / Penn Go Society". For more information about K.G.S., or to register for a free account, please click here. A map showing the location of Houston Hall on Penn's campus may be found here. Directions to our club may be found here. |

Our club meets in the Bistro Room, on the 1st floor of Houston Hall. If entering Houston Hall from Spruce Street, turn right once in the lobby and we are in the next room. If entering Houston Hall from the rear of the building, turn left once in the lobby and we are in the next room. For a detailed map, please click here.
We welcome anyone who has an interest in Go, whether they be a beginner or a 9-dan. The club is open to the public, you do not need to be enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania in order to join us. We have 15-20 regular members who play each week, ranging in rank from beginner to 4-dan. All equipment will be provided, but if you have your own board and stones, please feel free to bring them along. Because we are an AGA chapter, we ask for an annual $3.00 donation to help maintain our chapter status.
Any questions? Please email co-organizers Peter Nassar at pnassar@vet.upenn.edu or Matt Bengtson at matt@mattbengtson.com.
