Note: Unfortunately, the time the symposium is scheduled is a difficult time to get hotel rooms in the city: there is an NCAA basketball game on the 27th of March, and the rodeo will be going on at that time. So all three hotels are deeply encouraging us to ask you to please book earlier.

We can try to arrange crash space at graduate student's houses. If you prefer this option please contact us as soon as possible, as space is limited.
