The institute’s Orange County Society holds regular meetings for the public, typically at Southern California College in Costa Mesa.
Admission is $10 for society members and $15 for nonmembers. Students with identification get in for $5.
Registration starts at 9 a.m. with speeches beginning at 10 a.m. in UCI’s Crystal Cove auditorium on the second floor of the Student Center. Information: (714) 725-0267.
