CPSR Annual Conference October 19-21, 2001 Ann Arbor, Michigan

Hotels for CPSR 2001 Annual Conference

We have arranged for blocks of rooms in three hotels located on State Stree on the South side, near I-94. Check out the map. These rooms are substantially cheaper than the few choices downtown, but have the drawback that you'll need to figure out how to get the 3 miles to central campus. See the section on Ann Arbor for your options.

Downtown Hotels/B and Bs

There are a relative few places to stay downtown and you will find these generally somewhat more expensive. However, you can't beat the location. None of the following are more than a couple of blocks from the conference site. There are no rooms blocked at these places, so you may not find anything open. But they are very convenient. In no particular order...

• The Michigan League, right on campus
• Cost approximately $105 + taxes
• Phone: (734) 764-3177
• All rooms are blocked until 9/19/2001. Any rooms that are not taken will be released at that point.

Stay with a Michigan CPSR Member

Some people in the local chapter have offered to put people up (put up with people :-). If you'd like to take advantage of this, send Email to John and he will try to coordinate this. Maybe something will work out, for you and maybe not. Just in case, we suggest you reserve a hotel room and then cancel it if an alternative is found.
