(msuglobaldh.org/schedule). Dietary restrictions and needs are taken into
account in ordering food. There are always vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free

  *   There are free or low-cost accommodation options. We run a home stay
program, and housing in MSU's dormitories is available for $50/night (minimum
3 night stay). Find out more at msuglobaldh.org/accommodation.
  *   While parking is not free by default, we will have a number of parking
vouchers available.
  *   There are several available places on the schedule for virtual
presentations for speakers unable to travel to Michigan State University.

The conference keynote presentations will come from Carrie Heitman, whose work

biometric study of Javanese dance.
