Travel tips and how to’s

Hotel

  • For all non-speaker/presenter attendees of the symposium or workshop, please feel free to book rooms at any downtown hotel of your choice. The Holiday Inn is very close to the workshop site and has a negotiated rate of $99 per night and includes a complimentary breakfast. When you make your reservation please mention that you are in town on University business to get the special rate. http://www.ihg.com/holidayinn/hotels/us/en/lincoln/lnkdt/hoteldetail

*To all invited speakers for the Symposium and Workshop – please see travel details in the emails the organizers emailed directly to you.
