12th International Workshop on Spanish Sociolinguistics

Conference Location

Most conference events will take place in the Bunn Intercultural Center (ICC), a red brick building located in the center of Red Square. A few additional sessions will be held in the nearby Reiss and White Gravenor buildings, both of which are adjacent to the ICC.

To reach the ICC from the Main Gates, follow the diagonal path to the right until you arrive at Red Square. Entering from this direction brings you into the ICC on the third floor, in the Galleria. Conference activities will be held in the Auditorium as well as in classrooms on the first and second floors.

If you are coming from the Southwest Garage, exit the garage and walk uphill along Library Walk. Turn left at Healy Hall and continue along the path until you reach Red Square.
