This is the annual international meeting of the largest association for historians in America so it is very prestigious and well attended. I am very gratifies to be presenting there and there is a huge job fair that I will attend too. I have taken advantage of early enrollment in the conference registration and have also booked my room under the early-bird group discount. I got the cheapest flight I could on Orbitz. I am going to try to share the room with a student, but that has not proven possible yet.
