Santa Barbara Housing and Transportation Information: The conference headquarters on the UCSB campus is the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center (805-893-3907), but lodging will be at the Best Western South Coast Inn, 5620 Calle Real, in Goleta, about two miles from the campus and airport. Call them at 1-800-350-3614 to book your room. Mention the UCSB Capitalism and Its Culture Conference and you will get the discount rate. Do this as soon as possible so that we can secure additional rooms if needed. Transportation to and from the South Coast Inn will be provided. (We are asking individuals to book their own rooms since many California participants will need only one or two nights, while those coming in from the East might need three). Please also book your flight into Santa Barbara. These are convenient and at this point we do not expect the United Airlines bankruptcy to be disruptive. Retain your receipts and we will make every effort to reimburse you for a high proportion of your costs. However, the response to this conference has been large and we have therefore exhausted our preliminary travel budget. So if you can get funding from your host institution, please do so, This will help offset the travel costs of many of the graduate students, whose funding is far more limited.
