The registration desk, concurrent sessions, meals and drinks, and the Exhibit Hall will all be housed in the Millennium Student Center (MSC). The keynote on Friday morning will be held in the Touhill Performing Arts Center.

Loading/Unloading Materials
For presenters and exhibitors needing to load/unload materials from your car, you can drive up to the MSC North Entrance (the one facing the parking lot) temporarily to load/unload. In the morning and late afternoon both days, we will have carts and staff available to help you unload and wait with your materials while you park your car. There is an elevator located just inside this entrance, which you can use to access the third floor, where the session rooms and exhibit hall will be.
