The Fourth Workshop on Tang-Song Transitions

Lodging is provided for Friday and Saturday nights (April 3rd and 4th) at the Hotel Beacon, at 75th Street and Broadway (2130 Broadway, New York, NY 10023; Phone (212) 787-1100.) (For those traveling from Asia or Europe, lodging is provided for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, April 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.) Please contact Tony Lee (wl2464@columbia.edu) if you need to change your reservation. There will be dinners for all Workshop participants on Friday and Sat-urday evenings. (Restaurant information below.) On the Saturday of the Workshop, breakfast, lunch, snacks, and tea and coffee will be provided in the meeting room. The Workshop will reim-burse local travel to and from airports and between the hotel and the Workshop or dinners. Costs to and from airports are not very controllable (though if flights arrive close enough together for you to share taxis, that will be very helpful); but for travel from the hotel to the workshop and to the dinners we hope you will spare the Workshop’s budget by using either subway (the #1 Local) or three-person shared taxis.
