All participants can choose to enjoy overnight lodging on campus in a student suite in the South Hill Community. Suites contain three to five double-occupancy bedrooms with one or two shared bathrooms. Each suite includes a shared furnished living room. Laundry facilities are available centrally within the South Hill Community. Residents can also dine at their own expense in South Campus Dining Hall in the Community (and any other dinning halls on campus [Yahentamitsi is great!]). It is a 15-min walk to the conference and summer school venues. See some general information here.
Reservations must be made when registering for the conference (and summer school).
