Note: We don't have the website for registrations up yet, but to help everyone plan, I can tell you the prices. We were able to keep it very close to the bone and hopefully super doable thanks to generous support by our sponsors (see sidebar to the right, and consider adding your organization!!).
Early Bird: $125 Regular and $75 Student/Low Income (note that if you are low income we are not trying to make you show some kind of paperwork about it. People know their income.)
Last Minute: $150 Regular and $100 Student/Low Income (if you are a student or otherwise low income person who for obvious reasons doesn't want to pay $25 last minute fee, but can't get the money together early enough, just let me know ahead of time during the early bird time frame).

Not sure until we have the website built what will count as early bird, but really I think the whole rest of March at least.
Next post will be about hotels.
Oh. And. Our rooms at National Louis University are all outfitted with built in projectors on the ceiling. Be sure to bring a dongle if you are a Mac user, though, because the hookups are standard VGA format.
