AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL ASSOCIATION- Important reminder about APA Eastern hotel reservations


Dear DAVID,
 
There are just two weeks remaining to get the early bird discount on registration for the APA Eastern Division meeting in Philadelphia, PA! Online registration closes on December 18. Eastern meeting registration will not be available December 19 through January 7. If you don’t register online by December 18, you can still register on-site at the meeting—but note that on-site registration rates are $50 higher than early bird registration for all categories.
 
 


If you haven't booked your room, we urge you to do so before December 6. The APA conference rate of $149 per night (plus applicable taxes and fees) is valid through December 6, subject to availability.
 
Please note: It is important that those attending the meeting stay in the conference hotels, rather than at other hotels, and specifically in the block of rooms reserved for APA meeting attendees. The financial viability of the meeting depends on our meeting our contractual obligations, the most important of which (by far) is that we fill a minimum number of sleeping rooms. Failure to do so results in a significant penalty, which, as a non-profit organization, the APA is ill-equipped to pay, and which would take resources away from other important APA initiatives.
 
 
We hope to see you in Philadelphia!
 
All the best,
 
Amy E. Ferrer
Executive Director
