On-campus housing is provided in Dorsey Hall, in close proximity to Benton Hall where the conference will take place. I have been informed that the accommodations are ADA compliant. However, if you require special accommodations, please indicate so on the registration page so I can make sure everything is set.
I have also secured a block of rooms at the Marcum Inn and Conference Center (513-529-6911) on campus. The Marcum Inn is located adjacent to Dorsey Hall, and overlooks our botanical gardens. Rooms have been blocked at a discounted rate of $70 per night (plus any applicable taxes and fees). If you wish to stay at the Marcum Inn, you should register as a "Commuter" and then make your reservations with the Marcum Inn directly. When reserving a room, please use the group code "MTSM." The block includes: 7 single King rooms, 5 double Queen rooms, 4 King suites, and 4 double Queen suites. The Marcum Inn also has a small number of cots available, which you can request when making your reservation. The room block (and discount) was originally scheduled to expire on April 27, but has been extended indefinitely.
