How to Have a Major Conference Without a Campus Hotel


As a follow up, readers of this blog will recall an earlier entry about the 2-day Governor's Conference on Local Renewable Energy Resources which was held at UCLA recently without the need for a new hotel/conference center.

An official statement about the event reports that "The conference embodied the Governor's vision along with the Luskin Center for Innovation's purpose to unite the intellectual capital of UCLA with forward-looking civic leaders to address the most pressing issues confronting our community, nation and world."
