FW: NBER International Trade and Investment Program Meeting, December 4-5, 2015

From: Robert Feenstra <rcfeenstra_at_ucdavis.edu>

Dear ITI group:

For those attending the upcoming program meeting on December 4-5, in Stanford, I wanted to remind you that the meeting will not take place at the usual SIEPR building, because there is another conference taking place there. Instead, the meeting will take place in the Department of Economics, which is located at the corner of Galvez St. and Serra St., just beside the SIEPR building. For convenience, I attach a map showing the hotel and the Department of Economics.

Continental breakfast is at 9:00 am on Friday. While the Department of Economics is a healthy 15-20 minute walk from the hotel, for those driving I suggest that we meet in the hotel lobby at 8:45 am to pick up anyone who would like a ride.

Sincerely,
Rob
