Lodging and Meals
Students can choose to bunk up with Rose-Hulman students free of charge.
(Arrangements will be made by the organizers and students choosing this
option will be told where they are sleeping during the meeting on Friday.)
Otherwise, conference participants should reserve rooms as far in advance
as possible.
The conference officially opens after lunch on Friday, March 19. Your
registration fees (which is free for speakers) will cover the cost of lunch
on Friday, refreshments during the meeting, dinner on Friday, and lunch
on Saturday. All meals will be located in the Hulman Memorial Union in
the Louise Kahn Room. There will also be plenty of drinks, donuts,
and fruit available before and during the talks.
