Meeting Site
The meeting is located at the Memorial Union and the adjacent Wisconsin Union Theater on the beautiful campus of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The Memorial Union is commonly referred to as the “heart and soul of the University.”  The Italian-Renaissance style building is located on the shore of Lake Mendota in the heart of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. It is a focus of student activities and is close to shops, museums, libraries, and many local eateries. Oral presentations will take place in the historic Wisconsin Union Theater. This 1300 person theater has been a cultural center for the entire state of Wisconsin, featuring local, national and international acts since 1939.

You will find the best of all worlds in Wisconsin's vibrant capital city and picturesque surrounding towns: natural beauty and outdoor recreation, stimulating cultural offerings, distinctive restaurants and shops, and an irreverent spirit of fun.

Built on an isthmus between lakes Monona and Mendota, Madison is renowned for its beautiful scenery. A total of five area lakes and over 200 parks provide an abundance of year-round outdoor activities, from hiking, biking, swimming and sailing along with cross-country skiing, snow sailing and ice fishing.
