Special rates are also available for graduate students, but a special form is required.
Rooms will be available at these rates until that date, and as long as the room block is not filled. All four days of the convention are filled with sessions, off-site tours and meal events. The tour will last about 90 minutes. It is just up the street from the Capital South exit for the Metro's blue and orange lines. There is a limited number of spaces available for the tour.
