There's no better place to celebrate the diversity of the political science profession than in the Windy City, home of the ground-breaking social science innovation of the various Chicago Schools of the mid-twentieth century. In keeping with those innovations, the 103rd APSA Annual Meeting takes as its theme “Political Science and Beyond,” a look at what political science can teach to, and learn from, cognate disciplines. In addition, take this opportunity to visit Chicago's stunning architecture, world-famous museums and parks, and world-class dining.
APSA has changed its official hotels this year to those that better embrace the heart of the city. The 2007 Annual Meeting will be headquartered at Chicago's Hyatt Regency and the Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers. The Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers is located on the banks of the Chicago River; the Hyatt Regency is located just off Michigan Avenue in the heart of the Magnificent Mile. Both are within walking distance of the Navy Pier, Millennium Park, the Loop business district, the Art Institute and more.
