Getting there:
See http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~dan/travel.html
for instructions on traveling to the University of Illinois. We have
reserved (until March 26!) a block of 30 rooms at the Hampton Inn, listed
there, for the night before and the night after. (The unblocked rooms are
all reserved, so if the block is exhausted, you might have to stay in
another hotel, of which there are many.) Hampton Inn offers shuttle service
to the University and to the airport.
