The diversity that New York City brings as a venue for the SDS conference is more than evident in some of the presentations submitted for the conference. New York’s culture and vibrancy in the summer time will make the conference experience thoroughly enjoyable for participants visiting New York. For the lodging accommodations, SDS will provide two options for conference visitors. Designed to keep budgets in mind, the two lodging venues provide diversity and comfort. In addition, this web site will serve as a hub for participants who wish to find additional lodging choices.
