This points up someone's suggestion that convention committees look into holding their convention at universities. Dormitory rooms are usually a lot cheaper than hotel rooms; they often have an optional, inexpensive meal plan; and there's lots of lecture halls and smaller classrooms for the workshops.
However, there will be lacemakers who refuse to go because the site is more spread out, requiring more walking from the dorm to the class (and the walking is outside in summer heat, maybe even up/down hills) and because the sleeping accomodations are too "basic".
