Sessions and events were just a 5-10 minute walk away, meals were provided, and it provided ample opportunities to connect and mingle with fellow attendees late into the evenings in the residence hall common areas, swapping stories and experiences. I&#8217;m looking forward to those memorable moments again this year!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1050\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_8971-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"288\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_8971-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_8971-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_8971-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_8971-rotated.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you choose to stay on campus during the conference, you&#8217;ll be in Bischoff Hall. Each room has two extra long twin beds (don\u2019t worry, you won\u2019t have a roommate &#8211; all rooms are private during the conference!), a large desk, chair, bookshelves, closets, and a private bathroom. They are also equipped with air conditioning, a microwave, mini-fridge, and Wi-Fi access. However, please note that televisions are not provided. But hey, who needs TV when you&#8217;ve got all this excitement around you, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you&#8217;re curious about what the rooms look like, feel free to check out some 360\u00b0 images of the rooms <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/tours\/360-images\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Additionally, the building offers lounges on each floor, vending machines, complimentary laundry facilities, and nearby parking. There are seating areas, both indoor and outdoor, in the residence halls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1049\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_6922-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"426\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_6922-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/igg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2024\/03\/IMG_6922.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With all these features, you\u2019re in for a convenient and comfortable stay. However, it\u2019s not the same as a hotel &#8211; you may benefit from bringing a few creature comforts along:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Comfortable clothes and walking shoes for sessions during the day. The Ramapo campus is beautiful, although hilly, but also fully accessible.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For the evening Dinner\/Receptions (Friday &amp; Saturday), it might be a good idea to pack some dressier attire, but full formalwear isn&#8217;t necessary.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Extra <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0CHRN55VH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">phone chargers<\/a> and power banks to keep your devices charged.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Snacks and a reusable or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/PLTCAT-Collapsible-Foldable-Lightweight-Leak-Proof\/dp\/B0CKN25VBS?th=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">collapsible<\/a> water bottle (water refill stations available).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While coffee is provided with breakfast and available for purchase in The Atrium, please note that Dunkin Donuts and Common Grounds may not be open during this year&#8217;s conference. If you&#8217;re someone who loves coffee as much as I do, think about bringing your own Keurig, personal brewer, or instant coffee.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Toiletries, including shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, mouthwash, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Linens are provided in each room, but the towels are on the small side &#8211; these <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/4Monster-Camping-Absorbent-Microfiber-Backpack\/dp\/B07WCV6X3J\/ref=sr_1_6?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WvvBDl9oscGR0awGvH0kjuPPKYFc2pSgEK6_y-q51V4Wp8Svcy60I5Xyl3fHt-DTORDepZMXag6mNY3eBKGWxxlAYppqa0YbQoCzWUq9zICd5GMKamJ-eqqBFtfFg1ZMyZlBBIAPS50lBqJpe8bUmJDDiARRuG83nwvuSvjsOEnPeCkjkw4EB7RkG2eyYjX_lYAO_KOlshnPUQbzN3VvHB5nXbB0-FA3VTEg_Xzh3ZbfXOJCkL4SIKK_5OjV91c_R7cJ0-NxyuPsLRZPQDWRJ65BFHOZ9JnaEgGoW7j8Qb0.LxhORn0wvsxefq2fefdmICwKhptc-e0IcTDMBfHk04M&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=packable+towel&amp;qid=1709327206&amp;sr=8-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">packable towels<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> fit easily in your suitcase without taking up too much space.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hair dryer, straightener, or curling iron if needed for styling.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Consider bringing your preferred type of toilet paper if you&#8217;re particular, although toilet paper is provided..<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Earplugs or an eye mask for better sleep if you&#8217;re sensitive to noise or light.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Medications and first aid supplies, such as bandaids, that you may need.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Laptop\/tablet and chargers if needed for note-taking.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Small portable fan or extra blanket based on your temperature preferences.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Personal items for productivity and comfort during the conference (notebook, pen\/pencil, business cards, etc.).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">No need to stress if you forget something! You&#8217;ve got convenient options nearby with Acme, ShopRite, and Walmart just a quick 10-minute drive away, or easily accessible via rideshare. Plus, the Student Center might also be open for any last-minute necessities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And since there will be downtime in the evenings, consider bringing along a card game or another travel-sized game to keep the fun going.
