Getting Around Boston

The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) is called the "T" by Bostonians. This helpful mass transit system can transport you to almost anywhere you wish to go. The "T" runs daily service on buses, trains, and trolleys throughout Boston and surrounding towns. Look for the black T on a white circular sign to identify "T" stations. The Kendall Square "T" station, located right outside of the Boston Marriott Cambridge Hotel, offers easy access: it’s two stops to Harvard Square, three stops to downtown Boston, and seven stops to Boston’s Logan International Airport. Tokens or passes can be purchased at each station. State-of-the-art fare collection equipment is being introduced on the Silver and Blue Lines and will soon be used throughout the subway system, buses, and trackless trolleys. For more information about the "T", visit www.mbta.com on the Web.

Conference Attire

Casual attire is appropriate for all conference activities except the final banquet. Although individual expression is important, please use good judgment when packing for the conference. Girls should refrain from wearing revealing clothing, including very short skirts and shorts, bare midriffs, and low necklines. Boys should cover their boxers and remember to remove their hats when inside. Clothing promoting alcohol, drugs, tobacco or other distasteful logos is not allowed. Remember, you are representing your state, city, school and, most importantly, yourself.
