Dear Colleague,

Rated # 1 of eleven hotels in Statesboro on the TripAdvisor.com Popularity Index, the Trellis Garden Inn is not part of a chain but rather a customer-friendly host that we have often turned to for housing Georgia Southern University visitors.

A five-minute drive from campus, the Trellis Garden Inn is within walking distance of the pre-conference reception at the Averitt Center for the Performing Arts, in case you plan to arrive on Thursday. Free wireless internet, rooms with a homey feel, a sit-down Continental breakfast worth waking up for... and just ask Sylvia if you need any assistance.

We have reserved a special CONFERENCE rate for all interested conference participants: $59 before taxes, including Continental breakfast. If you are a Georgia educator, please bring a tax form from your department head or principal, which will qualify you for a 5% discount on the hotel tax.

To reserve your rooms for February 4 and/or February 5, call 1-800-475-1380. Be sure to state that you are participating in the Student Success conference at Georgia Southern University.

We look forward to welcoming you to Statesboro, and to Georgia Southern University's eleventh annual Student Success in First-Year Composition Conference.

Sincerely,

Assistant Professor Nancy Dessommes
Conference Co-Chair
