The Xena Project meets every Thursday evening during Imperial's term (early Oct to mid-Dec, early Jan to mid-March, mid-April to end of June) in the maths department at Imperial College London in South Kensington (although if you're not attached to Imperial there will be a few card-only locked doors you'll have to negotiate; ping me).

Hi,
I'm based in London too (sort of, at least for work). Also studying (part-time) Mathematics at Birkbeck.
@Kevin Buzzard is the Xena meetup still going on?

Kevin Buzzard (Jun 13 2022 at 15:22):

Yes although it's very quiet right now because it's post exams and most students have gone home

Hi, I've just moved to London (KCL) :smile:

Eric Rodriguez (Jan 14 2023 at 23:25):

yoo! I'm doing my masters' there, i'll come say hi at some point ^^

Daniel Rogozin (Mar 12 2023 at 19:06):

I'm going to do a PhD at UCL :hi:

Kevin Buzzard (Mar 12 2023 at 19:07):

Xena meets on Thursdays at Imperial during term times 5-8pm, and London Learning Lean is before that at 4-5.

Daniel Rogozin (Mar 12 2023 at 19:08):

South Kensington Campus?

Daniel Rogozin (Mar 13 2023 at 17:58):

I think I would participate in those meets starting next Thursday.

Btw, how do strike actions affect Imperial working hours and, subsequently, Xena meets? My UCL colleagues, for example, are going to participate in strike actions this month and cancel some events.

Kevin Buzzard (Mar 13 2023 at 18:32):

They won't be affected.

Daniel Rogozin (Mar 15 2023 at 17:06):

@Kevin Buzzard

Do I need any permission to enter the Imperial campus to join Xena meets?

At UCL, the guards tend to stop people without a scheduled appointment

Kevin Buzzard (Mar 15 2023 at 17:07):

There are no guards at Imperial. Perhaps we should take this discussion to DMs.
