Lodging
We have set aside a block of rooms at the Hyatt Regency Milwaukee Downtown. Located just a few miles southwest of the UWM campus, the hotel is close to several restaurants and bars as well many local attractions. They have given us special room rates of $119 plus tax per night. Please note that breakfast is not included in this rate. Rooms may be reserved by using the following link:

(Select “Attendee” from the drop down menu)

Please reserve rooms by April 13 to ensure this rate. The hotel’s address is 333 West Kilbourn Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53203. During the conference a shuttle will run from this hotel to the conference and back at the beginning and end of each day.

Getting to Milwaukee
We recommend flying into Milwaukee’s General Mitchell Airport (MKE), or to either Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport (ORD) or Midway Airport (MDW). From Chicago you can rent a car, catch the Airport Express bus run by Coach USA (https://www.coachusa.com/airport-transportation), or take the Amtrak train (http://www.amtrakhiawatha.com/). The train does not run directly from Chicago airports, but you can catch it in downtown Chicago. If you are driving, there is parking available on campus.
