next conference

[Adam Blatner]

but will the holding of alternative conferences undercut the motivation or willingness to attend the national conference and if so, what will that do to the asgpp as a national organization?  adam

Had anyone else done that...is there a template out there for creating and running a short conference? Anyone interested in helping to create a template if there isn't one already?

    And Baltimore, MD has many colleges/universities as well including John Hopkins, Goucher, Loyola, Notre Dame, Towson U., and Morgan.  Towson University is a state school and could be even more affordable than the private colleges.  
   
  Another affordable option to expensive hotels--a list of folks who would have rooms in their homes to let for the weekend.  For example, I have two bedrooms available and if the conference were in Baltimore I could create such a list.  What a nice experience for folks from other countries to experience a welcoming American family and home life as well as the conference.

Northampton, Mass has 5 colleges, including Smith College, University  
of Massachusetts, Amherst, Hampshire College and Mt. Holyoke  
College.   We could find one college, I am sure, to house a  
conference in 2009.  Colleges end mid-May, so we would have to have  
an early June conference.  The conference could include, for those  
who wanted, rental of a dorm room.  There are hotels here as well.

The criteria I hear from many is simply cost.  Miami was great but  
the cost was high.   If we want to attract many we have to make it  
affordable.
