Greetings from Milwaukee! On behalf of the Local Arrangements Committee, we want to extend a warm welcome to all who are traveling to Milwaukee for CCCC 2020. Collectively, we are a group of scholars who work, play, research, and have local affiliations to the city. Welcome!!
It is the responsibility of the Local Arrangements Committee to create the atmosphere—a combination of setting and services—that will bring to life the plans that have been months in forming to create an experience for each convention registrant that is stimulating and rewarding, professionally and personally.
As you start to plan your trip to CCCCs and need more information, please feel free to reach out to one of us listed below. We are including titles and brief description of our roles with local arrangements in order to help identify the best contact person for your request. We look forward to seeing you in March!
