Farwell HallLooking for some more budget-friendly and nearby lodging options for the Midwest EE Conference? In addition to hotel rooms, AirBNBs, and local camping, how about dorm rooms just a few steps from the conference? Luther College will be offering (air-conditioned) dorm lodging for MEEC attendees for around $50/night. All lodging options—including Luther housing—will be booked directly with the lodging venue. Reservations for hotels, Airbnbs, and camping are open now. We’ll post a link on the conference website when Luther housing reservations open.

It’s a go! Moving forward!
