Philadelphia.
Call SEPTA (215-580-7800) or visit
http://www.septa.org
for info on R3 line
going to West Trenton. Get off at Langhorne Station. The station is
only minutes away from the university. We'll be glad to pick you up.
During the conference call 610-506-8142, 610-209-2623, or 610-453-0351.
(Please do NOT call these numbers before the conference since they are
cell phones that are not always on.)
There is a phone booth at the station, and the university is only a couple
of minutes away. It is a good idea, however, to give us a heads-up of the
approximate time you'll be arriving via an email by Friday, August 4.
On Wednesday, August 9,
we'll be setting up at the university. It's doubtful I'll be online much
of the day, so be sure to call rather than email.
It's a short walk, if you enjoy walking and the weather permits. (See map

your left up Bellevue Avenue. Turn right on Manor Avenue. Walk two
blocks and the campus is on your left. See the Street Map for the
