Lectures

The lectures will be held in the Berger Auditorium (Room 207) of the McClelland building, on the UA campus. Here are directions.

Hotel

The conference hotel is the Tucson Marriott University Park. Wi-Fi access is included with your room at the Marriott (if your room was booked by the SWC). The hotel is right next to campus and about half a mile from the lecture hall. Please see the directions page for details.

Working sessions

There will be evening working sessions at 7:30 PM on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday evenings. The working sessions will provide students with an opportunity to discuss their projects with the speakers, as well as a chance for everyone to get more details or clarifications from the speakers. Active participation by all participants is strongly encouraged. The evening working sessions will take place in the ballroom of the Marriott. (Though the sessions begin at 7:30, the rooms are reserved from 6:30 PM if you wish to get an early start.)

Registration

Local registration for the conference will take place in the lobby of the Marriott Hotel on Friday evening to 5 PM to 8 PM, and again on campus from 8 AM to 10 AM Saturday morning in the area outside of McClelland 207. You can get expense reimbursement forms and pay the registration and banquet fees at these times.

Coffee and snacks

Coffee and snacks will be available 30 minutes before the lectures start each morning and during the longer between-lecture breaks.

Banquet

The conference banquet will be on Wednesday, March 18 in the ballroom of the Marriott. We plan for the gathering to begin at 6:00 with a cash bar in the foyer, followed by dinner at 6:30. The cost is $20 for participants, thanks to a subsidy from the Department of Mathematics, and $40 for guests. Payment will be taken at registration. If you would like to attend, please sign up no later than Friday, March 13. More details can be found on the signup page.

Free Afternoon

The afternoon of Monday, March 16 is a free afternoon. An excursion to Sabina Canyon is planned. If you would like to participate, please sign up no later than Friday, March 13.
