too many reviewers! Sign-ups will be closed as of Dec. 23, 2005. As of Nov. 1, how much does registration cost, and how do I get my discount? Along with the "Branding" theme of the conference, we offered a $5 discount (pre-registration fee of $45; standard registration fee of $55) to those who submitted a 150-word branding strategy at the time of registration. The purpose of the exercise is to use our graduate student creativity to develop some clever ideas for how to increase the visibility of our field in the business community and among the general public! The top three (3) most creative ideas will be announced at the conference and rewarded with a full refund for registration. The opportunity to submit a branding strategy and receive a discount on registration has expired. Which paper topics will be considered? Papers that are both empirical and theoretical will be accepted for this conference, involving all research topics relevant to the Industrial Organizational Psychology or Organizational Behavior research fields. Visit our submission page for all the details! Which hotel is being used as the conference hotel? The conference hotel will be the Hyatt Fair Lakes in Fairfax, VA. The discounts end on February 2nd, so book soon! Please see our Travel Information page for more details! I am interested in flying in for the conference. Will transportation be provided from the airport? YES! On the first morning/afternoon of the conference (Feb. 24, 2006), we will be offering complimentary shuttle service from Dulles International Airport (IAD), as well as from Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) via the Vienna Metro Station. This transportation will take you from the airport to the conference hotel, from where you will take another shuttle to the conference at GMU. These shuttles will operate at fixed times throughout the conference, and will offer return transportation to both local airports early Sunday (Feb. 26) afternoon. For more details, check out our Travel page. What
is the best way to get to Farifax, VA by car? NOTE:
We strongly encourage those who arrive in private automobiles
to use their own transportation throughout the conference. George Mason
is only a short drive from the hotel, and the complimentary shuttles will
be running only at fixed times at the beginning and end of the conference
each day. Where
