Groupoidfest 2008 will be held this coming Fall at the University of
California, Riverside, on the weekend of November 22-23, 2008.
Most participants will probably arrive on Friday (November 21) and leave on Sunday (November 23) in the
afternoon.
Talks will be scheduled for Saturday and Sunday morning.
As has been the tradition, the conference budget of $0 will be evenly split among
all participants.
This webpage will be regularly updated as further information becomes available,
including a list of participants, a schedule of talks and abstracts.
Getting to Riverside:
Driving directions to the UCR campus can be found here.
The On-Campus International Residence Center (IRC) is operated
by the UCR Extension Center and offers hotel-like rooms for very affordable rates ($50 for a single room, $25 per person in a shared room).
Their availability is limited, so rooms should be reserved well in advance. Please inform the organizer as soon as possible if you
plan on staying at the IRC, since a further discount which is offered for groups of 10 or more people can be requested.
