Conference Announcement - Nicole Cain
Announcing SITAR 2015 in Toronto, Canada
It is my pleasure to announce the 18th Annual meeting of the Society for Interpersonal Theory and Research at the DoubleTree by Hilton Toronto Downtown, May 29-30, 2015.
Toronto is a vibrant city offering an eclectic mix of architecture, food, and shopping as well as numerous activities to see and do, such as the CN Tower, Toronto Zoo, and Opera House. The DoubleTree by Hilton Toronto Downtown is located in the heart of Toronto’s financial and shopping district. Conference attendees will have easy access to the city center as well as public transportation.
The conference website (sitar2015.weebly.com) includes specific details about travel, the conference hotel, conference registration, how to submit a presentation, as well as student travel grants and the Wiggins award. Information about the program will be available after March 1, 2015.
There are a number of hotels in the area. We have locked in a special SITAR rate at the DoubleTree by Hilton Toronto Downtown of C$155/night for queen/king rooms and C$185/night for double rooms (please note: all room rates are in Canadian dollars and are subject to 13% HST and 3% Destination Marketing Fee). Reservations can be made by phone or email. By phone, please call either the hotel direct line (416-599-0555) or toll-free (800-668-6600). Or email, [email protected].
