The Student Village

On campus housing is at the Student Village (10 Buick St). The Student Village is an apartment-style residence. Each apartment has four single-occupancy bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small kitchen and a living room. Beds are made prior to arrival, and guests are supplied with bath linens and basic amenities such as soap and shampoo. There is an alarm clock in each bedroom, but televisions and telephones are not provided. The Student Village is .5 miles from the meeting lecture halls.

Unfortunately, check-in time begins at 3:00 pm which is also the time of our first invited lecture, so you may not end up checking in until after the Battles Lecture. You must check out prior to 11:00 am.

When you check in, you will receive a room key and an ID card. Please make sure that you return both when you check out. There is a $100 fee for a lost key and a $25 fee for a lost ID card.

The 10 Buick Street Market and Café, located on the ground floor, is both a café and a convenience store. The café offers bagels, soups, salads and sandwiches that can be enjoyed in the adjacent dining area or purchased for take-out.

There is a Starbucks across Comm Ave from the Student Village one-half block down the hill toward the lecture halls. Expresso Royale is another coffee house on Comm Ave near the lecture halls.

We regret that the overnight parking for the conference is at 766 Comm Ave (see the parking directions). After the Battles Lecture, we will organize some car pools to get everyone parked in the appropriate lot and dropped off at the Student Village.

There are 20 participants who are staying at the Student Village. You may want to make arrangements with one another regarding some sort of car pool in the morning.

The trolley is free in the outbound direction if you board above ground. The fare is $1.25 in the inbound direction.
