How do I request a special diet or accommodation? Please contact Lyn (lyn.redington@uni.edu) with any special requests or diets. Will snacks be provided? We have designated a space in Panther Village as the RELI Hospitality Center where you will have access to snacks and refreshments! Coffee and snacks will also be available throughout the sessions. Camelbak water bottles will be provided. What should I bring? Some suggestions: water bottle, travel coffee mug, umbrella, alarm clock, camera, sunscreen, toiletries, cell phone, laptop or iPad chargers, hairdryer, and business cards. What should I wear?: Dress is business casual for each day. We en-courage you to wear comfortable shoes for walking on-campus and a sweater/jacket for air-conditioned spaces. For our closing banquet, dress is business casual. At the closing banquet, you will also have the option to take a professional head shot. What will the weather be like? Cedar Falls weather in June can be unpredictable! We encourage you to plan ahead for warm, windy, rainy, or chilly weather. All of our spaces are air-conditioned, but we will be walking across campus for sessions and meals. Who should I contact if the doors to Panther Village are locked?
