What to Bring

Guests are advised to bring:

• Alarm clock
• Lounge wear (appropriate for common living areas)
• Shower slippers
• Umbrella and/or raincoat

Seattle weather is generally mild, with temperatures averaging 70–80°F. Heat waves do occur periodically, and campus buildings, including the residence halls, are not air-conditioned. Be prepared for cooler evenings and occasional rain showers.

For those who prefer to bring their own linen and towels, choosing a color other than white or beige helps housekeeping to identify personal items.

The UW is a pedestrian campus; bring comfortable shoes and be prepared to walk.

Residence Halls

Located on campus, residence halls serve as conference housing and provide easy access to campus meeting spaces and services. All rooms are furnished with twin-size beds, desks, bedding, towels, a small fan, soap and drinking cups.

West Campus—Private Bath: Conference guests will reside in double- or single-occupancy rooms with private baths, nightstands, dressers and toilet paper. These residence halls feature wireless Internet and close proximity to the Henry Art Gallery and the Meany Hall for the Performing Arts. West Campus also boasts our all-you-care-to-eat dining facility, Local Point at Lander Hall, our full-service restaurant (Cultivate) and campus grocery store (District Market). For off-campus activities, guests have easy access to The Ave, which hosts a number of restaurants, late-night activities and retail establishments.

Residence hall rooms are arranged corridor-style by floor with each floor sharing a large lounge.

Guests from different conferences, both youth and adults, may share the same building, floor and dining room.
