Housing for the workshops is offered in Tradition dorm for $134 for Sunday night through Wednesday night. The small 2-bedroom is the only floor plan available. Roomates share a living area but have their own bedrooms that lock separately. A refrigerator and microwave are included. You may bring a TV or use one of the media rooms. Linens, towels, and parking in the garage at Tradition are included. Blocker Building, where the institutes are held, is close enough to walk, but you may park in the Northside Garage for an extra fee (see Parking Information below). If you indicate in your registration that you desire on-campus housing, reservations will be made for you for 5 nights, Sunday through Thursday. A full breakfast may be purchased in the dining room at Tradition. Pastries, coffee, and juice are available each morning in Blocker.
Off-Campus Housing is available at several motels/hotels located near the campus.

Parking
Parking is available in the Northside Parking Garage, which is next to the Blocker Building (maps) where the workshop will be held, for an hourly rate, which comes to about $15 per day. You do not need a parking pass; simply pay in the machine each day you choose to park there. The West Campus parking garage is located across Wellborn Road from the football stadium, and is about 1 mile from the Blocker Building, where the institutes will be held.
