Transportation & Parking

If you’re flying to Chicago: Midway airport (MDW) is smaller and closer to the University of Chicago campus. International travelers have no choice but to fly to O’Hare airport (ORD).

Once in Chicago, we suggest you use public transportation or ride sharing services. Parking on campus can be challenging.

Speakers are all invited to lunch. Lunches will be served at the Quadrangle Club, on the University of Chicago campus.
