Packing List
Conference Bag
As part of our broad sustainability efforts, ResNet 2010 attendees will not be receiving a conference bag.
- Anyone traveling with laptops will have ample room in their laptop bags for the symposium program booklet and other handouts.
- Otherwise, a simple tote bag, like those increasingly popular reusable grocery bags, will be easy to stuff in your luggage and sufficient for carrying your symposium materials.
Clothing & Accessories
In Bellingham, one of the simple keys to happiness is utilizing the layers approach to dressing and the right shoes and hat for every occasion.
- base layer: t-shirt or button-down (long sleeve if you tend to get cold easy)
- warm layer: light sweater, hoodie, fleece
- outer layer: rain jacket works best, doubles as windbreaker
- School Spirit Night: For the Opening Reception & Dinner, Saturday, June 26th, wear something with your institution’s branding on it.
- Geek T-shirt Day: On Sunday the 27th, ResNet attendees have the opportunity to don their favorite geek T-shirt. The caffeine molecule. Keep out of direct sunlight. What one will be your favorite to run out and buy when you get home?
