Budgets are tight everywhere. CASE III knows that and has responded. Attending the conference has never been so cost effective, and there are even more ways to save:

  1. Get a group discount: If three (or more) members of your institution register within 24 hours, you can all come for $299 each. Register online right now >
     
  2. Land a good airfare: If you're flying to Tampa, good news: We've arranged for special discounts with AirTran and JetBlue.
     
  3. Carpool: Visit the conference Facebook page and click on the "Carpool" Discussion Group. Announce that you'd like to accompany 1 or more colleagues on a road trip to Tampa (or find someone in your area who's looking for the same).  You'll make a new contact, save some money, and feel good about helping the environment.
     
  4. Schedule campus business: Call on a donor or prospect in Florida. Or plan an alumni gathering while you're in town. You'll find venue suggestions on our Enjoying Tampa page.
     
  5. Get the Super Shuttle discount. No more $35 cab fares — we've arranged for the Super Shuttle to provide a $20 roundtrip ride between the airport and Waterside Marriott. Or $144 for 10 in a van, roundtrip. Reserve now (and make sure you use the secret Group Discount Code, 2CWM5.
     
  6. Share a room with a colleague: The Marriott Waterside is a magnificent (and extremely reasonable) hotel. The rooms are comfortable. So why not "double up" with a roommate? Besides, with so much to do, it's not like you'll be in the room all the time. Book now >
     
  7. Add a vacation: It's winter. The conference is on the "Sun Coast" of Florida. So if you come early or stay later, you leverage both work and personal funds.

7.5. Save on office supplies: A great thing about CASE III is you can pick up some nifty office supplies from Exhibitors. (We haven't bought a pen in a decade. We have a wonderful assortment from Harris Connect, GEICO, Corporate DevelopMint, Liberty Mutual, and others.)
