Schedule
This schedule is tentative and subject to future edits/changes. As we know about locations, we'll add them to the schedule.
​
Here is a PDF map of the Cornell University Campus. For the purposes of this map, the conference will primarily take place in four quadrants: C4, C5, D4, and D5. The majority of activities will take place in Morrill Hall, Stimson Hall, Goldwin Smith Hall/Klarman Hall, Martha Van Rensselaer Hall (MVR), Physical Sciences Building, Lincoln Hall, and Olin/Kroch Library.
​
You can also search for individual buildings in Cornell Maps by typing in a building name or clicking on it.
​
Since most of you will be staying in Hotel Ithaca, we have arranged a shuttle from Hotel Ithaca to the Cornell Campus in the mornings and in the evenings.
S​huttle times are now available on the FAQ page.
​
If you wish to travel to Cornell back to the Hotel at a time when there is no shuttle, you can take the TCAT Bus 30 to travel. If you wanted to travel to Cornell, you would take the bus from Green St. @ Commons and disembark at Rockefeller Hall (on Cornell Campus). If you wanted to travel to Hotel Ithaca, you would take the bus from Goldwin Smith Hall (across the street from Rockefeller Hall) and disembark at Green St. @ Commons.
