Schedule
of session
Travel Information
AMS has posted a detailed information
page on registration and housing.
Davidson College has a maps and directions
page.
The room number for our session is Chambers 3068, almost all events will
take place in the Chambers building. Just to remind you,
we can park next to the Bakers Sports complex. A printable campus map
may be downloaded from Davidson's maps and directions
page.
Available presentation tools
According to a recent email from Prof Matthew Miller,
" ALL Special Session rooms
will be equipped with computer projection devices (you plug in your
laptop and it projects on a screen, often, but not always, directly in
front of the room--in some cases they have arranged that the drop down
screen does not block the dry erase board). There are no chalkboards.
The podium also has a document camera (known to some as an Elmo). This
will project virtually anything: printed text, written text,
transparencies, 3-D objects. In my experience they the projection
distinguishes colors but not always as faithfully as one might
hope."
Per request of one of our participants I obtained a promise from John
Swallow (faculty at Davidson College) that besides the document camera
we will also have an overhead projector in our room. Thus, if you are
planning to use transparencies, you will be able to project two at a time.
Conference dinner
We have tentatively reserved 20 seats for a common
dinner at Jasper's (International Couisine) for
March 3, 6:45 pm. This restaurant is only a few minutes
walk away from the Davidson College Campus, and there
are only very few restaurants which are so conveniently
located. They are not too large either-- to me it
seems that in case of full attendance we will occupy
about 1/3d or 1/2 of the space available at Jasper's.
That's why I urgently need your response whether you
want to join this party, or dine on your own. Please
respond either way at your earliest convenience.
Jasper's has a webpage at
http://jaspersatdavidson.com.
(For some reason the menu will not load if you use
Firefox, so please use Internet Explorer exceptionally.)
Update added on Thursday, March 01, 2007: 20 people responded
to the invitation positively. I requested the restaurant manager to keep
about four more seats available. So everybody will be able to join.
