Dear Aerospace Division,



ASEE was recently notified that the Long Beach Convention Center, site of
our planned 2021 Annual Conference and Exposition, will be used as a
temporary shelter for migrant children who have crossed into the United
States. As a result, the Long Beach Convention Center will not be available
to host the 2021 ASEE Annual Conference, and the conference will move to a
fully virtual format.

   - The details of the virtual format, registration fees, and other issues
   will be confirmed in the coming weeks; the conference dates will remain
   July 26-29. Paper deadlines remain unaffected.
   - Reminder that all ASEE papers are publish to present. If you are
   unable to attend the conference, your paper can still be published.

ACTION ITEM - TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS:

   - If you have made a hotel arrangement in the ASEE Block through the
   housing bureau, your reservation will be cancelled automatically.
   - If you made a hotel reservation OUTSIDE the ASEE block, you must
   cancel that hotel reservation directly. ASEE will not be able to cancel it
   for you.

We look forward to creating a robust, exciting, and effective virtual
experience for you, as we did in 2020.



Best wishes.
