Hotel Accommodations at the JW Marriott

The Forum will take place at the newly renovated JW Marriott, in the heart of Washington, D.C. Attendees will enjoy easy access to the monuments and museums, and getting to the hotel is easy.

Attendees are responsible for their own hotel accommodations. Hotel reservations can be made by phone or online. The Chronicle has arranged a block of rooms for the Forum at a group rate of $299 per night plus tax.

For individual reservations at the JW Marriott, call (800) 266-9432 and reference "The Chronicle of Higher Education" to receive the group rate.

You may also make your reservation online by visiting http://www.jwmarriottdc.com and entering the group code "chechea" or by visiting http://marriott.com/wasjw?groupCode=chechea&app=resvlink.

All reservations should be made as soon as possible but no later than Wednesday, May 14, 2008. We expect the block will fill up well before this date.
