***Ohio University Inn is one of the "co-sponsors" and the preferred hotel of MEEC 2008.  Room rates at the OU Inn will be cheaper for MEEC 2008 participants than rates at Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn, and Amerihost Suites.  In addition, the OU Inn is the only hotel within walking distance to the conference events at The Baker Center; students who participate in the mixers held at the hotel can return directly to their rooms after the events end.***
