Accommodations

Participants are kindly requested to arrange for their accommodation individually. There are several ways in which one can procure accommodations:

Arrangements have been made with the University of Pennsylvania’s Office of Hospitality Services to reserve a number of rooms in one of the university’s residence halls. The price for these rooms is $90 a night per person, and they will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis. To make reservations, please use the following link:

Arrangements have also been made with the hotel Club Quarters (1628 Chestnut Street) for a number of rooms at a special, reduced rate for conference attendees. The hotel is located about 20-30 minutes walk from the University of Pennsylvania and one block from both bus and trolley lines to the University.
