A NOTE ABOUT UBER/LYFT:

  • If you’d like a rideshare service to pick you up from campus at any point during the conference, the best coordinates to give them (to prevent confusion on their part) are the intersection of Waverly Ave. and S. Crouse Ave. This is just at the bottom of the hill from Crouse College, where the Setnor School of Music is.
