- I'm flying in early Tuesday* morning. I have lodging plans, but will be a bit far from UW, so I'm happy to join in on group accommodations if my marginal impact is low (i.e. if I can join in without requiring an additional room to be booked, and mainly just make things easier/cheaper and not harder/more expensive). Otherwise, I'll figure things out on my own!
