Registration will begin in February, 2009. Participants must register by mid-April to avoid a higher registration rate. Single day registration will be available on site.

We are currently finalizing our budget.

We anticipate a registration fee of approximately $150 for faculty with a reduced fee of approximately $100 for graduate students, retirees, part-time and unemployed workers. (This fee includes many, but not all, meals.)

The banquet on Saturday night will cost an additional $50 (est.).
