Deadline: January 19

  • Printout of schedule (Julie W?)
  • Instructions on connecting to wireless (including username/password if required) - hand out at registration, rather than placing in packets, as people staying in the hotel will get credentials upon check-in (all for IU-Guest)
  • Map of campus (Julie W?)
  • Map of the Union (Julie W?)
  • List of bars/restaurants, including a map with best ones circled (The Convention and Visitors Bureau will likely have city maps) Julie and Mike
