The II-VI Workshop committee respectfully asks all attendees to reserve their rooms at the official workshop hotel, the Embassy Suites Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile. By staying at this hotel you will assist the workshop in lowering production costs and in continuing with the program in subsequent years.  Each year, the committee has to guarantee a certain amount of room nights in order to achieve its contract with the hotel.  If room totals fall below the contracted amount, the workshop has to pay attrition fees.

We thank you for your cooperation.
