There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
Join us for a half-day symposium on this extraordinary building erected to house the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London. Its disruptive design caused quite a stir and the construction procedures used to complete it in months were well ahead of their time.
Save the date and come listen to eight Georgia tech speakers from several colleges and schools talk about why it was built, the designers and builders, the exhibits, its structure and internal environment and the innovative approach to the construction logistics. There will be a musical interlude.
