Dorm Rooms



Dorm room prices are confirmed:


Single: $28.50 first night. $14.25 for each subsequent night.
Double: $19.00 per person first night. $9.50 for each subsequent night

OK to bring family members (spouses, kids, etc. but no pets). Only two people per room, same rates apply per person. No triples.

There are 90 singles in Draime Main.
There are 25-35 doubles in Draime Extention.

If registration exceeds the Draime capacity, overflow will be into Knowles Hall. Knowles has not been renovated recently like Draime, but is adequate. I would encourage folk to register early.

There is a kitchenette on each floor with a microwave, mini-fridge and sink. The Local Arrangements Committee plans to make hospitality baskets for each kitchenette with popcorn, snacks, tea, etc.

There is also a small lounge area on each floor...most have a TV with cable. The lounges would make good impromptu meeting spaces for small groups (i.e. 10 or so people).

There are coin operated laundry facilities in each dorm.


Each dorm room comes with:
  • High speed internet connection, no charge (bring your own ethernet cable).
  • There is no wireless in the dorms.
  • One pillow
  • Bed linens, a blanket, towel and washcloth. There is an additional fee for extra linens ($6.25)
  • Cable hookup if you want to bring a TV, no charge
  • Single bed, desk, closet.

Things you might want to bring:
  • A fan (there is no air conditioning)
  • Reading lamp (the only light is a floor lamp)
  • Extra blankets, pillows, etc.
  • Stuffed animals


Draime Knitting Lounge: Think you might need to take a break, or relax in the evening with other busy bees? The Knitting Lounge will be in the Draime Lounge on the first floor of the dorm. Sorry there is no wireless in the dorms.
