ON-CAMPUS HOUSING

We are pleased to invite DRC attendees to reside on the campus of the University of Notre Dame. Notre Dame is a summer tourist area and accommodations can be difficult to secure. Therefore, early registration and reservations are essential. On-campus accommodations will be available on a first request basis in one of four recently constructed, air-conditioned residence halls within a five-minute walk from the technical session area. Accommodations are either single or double occupancy dormitory rooms each with its own sink. Common shower and restroom facilities are designated for men and women on each floor. Guests may wish to bring a robe and shower thongs. Linen service for towels and bed sheets will be provided, however washcloths are not. Calling card accessible phones are available within the residence hall lobbies. Conference attendees bringing personal computers with Ethernet connectivity can enjoy free internet access through ResNet, Notre Dame’s high-speed network wiring in every dorm room and several public areas on cam-pus (cable with RJ-45 connector required). The residence hall cannot provide a wake-up service, so you may wish to bring an alarm clock.

The University of Notre Dame offers the following pack-age plans to provide planning flexibility and the option to attend both DRC and EMC. Residence hall package plans A, B, and C include full meal service. Residence hall room packages without meals are not available. No adjustments from the chosen package for lodging or meals will be made for late arrival or early departure.
