Registration and Accommodation
Deadlines
Early Registration: June 1
Housing: July 1
Registration Fees
The early registration cost (before June 1) is $375 for regular attendees
and $200 for students. After June 1, the late registration cost for
regular attendees will be $450, and that for students will be $275.
Participants should register early, both
to save money and to assure a place in the conference, as the number
of attendees that can be accommodated at the Clark Kerr Campus is
limited. Registration will be on a first-come,
first-served basis.
Housing, Meals, and Parking
The official conference housing is at the Clark
Kerr Campus of the University of California, Berkeley, which offers
very reasonably priced accommodations and meals in a quiet, campus-like
setting. All common and residential areas inside this facility are
nonsmoking. The Clark Kerr Campus is approximately 1 km from Berkeley's
Telegraph Avenue business area and 1.5 km from the center of the main
university campus. Accommodations at the Clark Kerr Campus are provided
as a package that includes housing and dining services. All housing
arrangements must be made either on line or through the ICESS8 Office;
do not contact the Clark Kerr Campus directly.
