How does check-in work on Monday, May 22? 
We are working to make your pre-registration efforts pay off in ease of check-in.  Prior to the conference, we will provide you the name of the hall in which you will stay.  Check-in will be at the front desk of each residence hall.
 

Where will we be staying?
Swanson Hall and McGloin Hall are two suite-style residence halls which will hold out-of-town delegates.

Each suite in McGloin Hall, completed in 1998, has two bedrooms, a shared living area and a bath. Swanson Hall, renovated in 1999, has suites with two bedrooms, sharing a bath.  In Swanson, common areas such as lounge, studies with computer access and kitchens are shared by the guests living on the floor. For details and diagrams of these two halls check out this link.
 

Getting Messages 
Non-emergency messages will be posted on a board in the lobby of your residence hall.  In the event of an emergency, every effort will be made to bring the message to you.  The number to give to others to call for all messages - 24 hours a day - is 402/546-6500.

Checking E-mail while at the Conference
There is a computer room in each residence hall.  An E-mail Café with 16 additional computers (14 P.C.’s and 2 Macs) will be available at the top of the stairs that face the fireplace just outside the Skutt Student Center ballroom.  There are instructions, on the home page screen of each of these computers, on how to check your e-mail at your home campus.   Staff will be available to assist anyone who needs help.

The instructions for using the ethernet connection in all the residence hall rooms with your own laptop, are unique for each hall.  They can be found at these two links:  McGloin Hall  and  Swanson Hall.

Using the Recreation Center
From 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. each day, you will find the Kiewit Recreation Center available for your physical fitness needs. Racquetball courts, running track, exercise machines and weights, showers and sauna will be open during those hours for any Heartland delegate.  The Recreation Center Pool will be open from noon to 7:30 p.m. during the Conference.
