The larger room has a seating capacity of 175 while the smaller room can seat 125. Both lecture halls are air conditioned. The room has tables for 24 4X4 poster boards, but can accommodate more 4X8 poster boards leaning vertically against the walls. The equipment provided consists of an amplified sound system with a speakers' microphone at the podium and two other microphones for questions from the audience. In addition, each meeting room is equipped with an overhead projector, a slide projector, a pointing device and a timer.
Some conferences have special needs.
The amount of extra equipment is limited, and reservations are made on a first come, first serve basis. Each dorm at Plymouth has 100 double rooms. The toilet and shower facilities are separate from the sleeping rooms. All the rooms are wired for telephones and can be used to link to the conferees' home computer provided they bring their own software. Conferees eat their meals in the Prospect Dining Hall.
