Greetings NCCC-134 Committee Members and Interested Parties
The
program
brochure for the 2007 meeting. Revised 04/03/07.
The NCCC-134
Committee has secured the Illini Center (of the University of Illinois
at Champaign-Urbana) in Chicago for the April 16-17, 2007
meeting. It is
good to be going back to Chicago. Thanks go to Joost Pennings for
his work on this. The staff at the Illini Center have put us in
the conference rooms used for the University of Illinois Executive MBA
Program. The meeting facilities should be outstanding.
The Illini Center is located at 200 S. Wacker Dr. in Chicago. It
is accross the street from the Sears Tower and between the CME and
CBOT. The link is http://www.illinicenter.uiuc.edu/
As we are not meeting at a hotel, please keep than in mind
when planning your travel. I have reserved a block of rooms with
the Club Quarters. The local phone number is
312-214-6400. There are two locations in Chicago -- one close to
the Illini Center and one close to Michigan Avenue -- there is a block
in both. Please identify yourself as with the University of
Illinois (this is a University of Illinois function) and use group code
"UIL415".
The rate is $128 per night.
