[Our intent is to list helpful travel, hotel, and other travel tips here.  If you have such information, email it to vaughn@cse.msstate.edu for posting please.]

In our discussions so far we have decided to leave it up to each of you to make your own travel arrangements.  Last year we tried to block out rooms in a hotel - but it seemed that few, if any, actually used the blocked rooms - most preferring to stay at a hotel of their choosing.  There are plenty of places to stay and if you haven't been to Anchorage in awhile, you might be surprised how easy it is to get around. The roads have really improved.
