Conference Hotels:
We are excited to offer three great options for lodging for participants in this year’s symposium at the Illini Union Hotel, Hampton Inn, and Hawthorn Suites.
Group Block name for all three: HLS.
The deadline to make reservations at the Illini Union Hotel and the Hampton Inn as a part of the group block is August 23, 2015. The deadline for the Hawthorn Suites is August 24, 2015. Reservations made after this date will be made only on a space available basis.
The conference block discount is only available for the days of the conference (September 24th-27th).
