Bus Departure for Conference Dinner
Enter Senate House from Malet Street or Russel Square Car Park. Buses for conference dinner leave from Malet St Car Park at 18:30:
Senate House, our meeting venue, is the administrative centre of the University of London. The Art Deco building was constructed between
1932 and 1937. It is commonly said that Hitler had ordered against the bombing of Senate House, because he wanted to use it as his
Headquarters in London, on account of its fascistic architectural style. The building did make an appropriate appearance in the film, Batman
Begins, as the heart of corruption in Gotham City, and its brutalist exterior is said to have been the model for the Ministry of Truth in
George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty Four.
