  • Conference Dress:
We suggest Business Casual for the entire conference. Also wear your walking shoes, as there are many opportunities for exploring the neighborhood. Jane Hopkins

  • Is the conference casual dress? Are the dinners dressy? I want to travel light, but I don't want to feel under or over dressed! I am from a very casual part of Oregon close to Portland, and jeans are common even in weekend church services.

I hope others who are more fashion conscious that I am will also respond, but generally folks dress casual throughout the conference. When I make a presentation or have a part in the proceedings, I generally wear a tie. I hope this helps. Don

  • "casual" means different things to different people. I would say the important concept for dress attire is comfort. The evening events like the opening reception are dressier and I dress up a bit for my presentations or if I am introducing a speaker, but I always try to wear comfortable shoes. The rest of the time casual summer dress seems fine. I don't think jeans are appropriate except on the extra curricular outings. Tami

  • Are the meeting rooms air conditioned?
Yes--The Cedarville University campus is air-conditioned. This includes the meeting rooms and residence halls.

  • Do we need to bring hangers? Sometimes there are some and other times none. I usually bring 2-3 wire hangers which I can leave behind Linda

  • Is the campus compact, or is there a fair amount of walking between dorms, meeting rooms, and cafeteria?

The Cedarville campus is very walkable. There is a nice man-made lake on campus and most of the buildings we will be using are around the lake. It is a beautiful walk between buildings. Bring your walking shoes. There is parking at the dorms and near the meeting rooms and dining room if you need to drive.

  • When is dorm check in on Sunday?
*Dorm check-in and registration begin at 2 pm Sunday.

  • This is my first conference. I am not able to come in until Monday. Is that too late for check-in and registration? Where will check-in and registration be?
You can still check in on Monday or Tuesday. On-campus check-in registration information will be announced in the spring.
