Welcome ACUTA! April 19-22, 2009 Overview

As the official host of ACUTA's 38th Annual Conference and Exhibition at the Hyatt Regency in Atlanta, Georgia, Emory University is pleased to invite you to beautiful Atlanta!

ACUTA, the Association for Information Communications Technology Professionals in Higher Education, is an international non-profit educational association serving colleges and universities. Topics to be covered at the ACUTA conference include Unified Communications/VoIP, Mobility and Wireless Issues, Network and IT Security, Emergency Communications, and Network Infrastructure.

Located downtown, the Hyatt Regency Atlanta is in easy walking distance to the Georgia Aquarium (the world's largest aquarium), the World of Coca-Cola, CNN Center & Studios, and the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site. Also nearby is the dazzling High Museum of Art, Turner Field (home of the Atlanta Braves), Stone Mountain Park, world-class shopping, golf, etc.

Five miles away from downtown Atlanta is Emory University. Founded in 1836 by the Methodist Episcopal Church in the small town of Oxford, Georgia, Emory moved to its current Atlanta location in 1915. Today, with an enrollment of more than 12,750, Emory is home to an undergraduate college and top tier medical, law, and business schools. Neighbors of Emory University include Emory Hospital, the Emory Clinic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the VA Medical Center.

Emory University is an inquiry-driven, ethically engaged and diverse community. Emory's members work collaboratively for positive transformation in the world through courageous leadership in teaching, research, scholarship, healthcare, and social action.

We hope you will stop by our host table during the conference. We will be there to assist with any questions you may have and provide information and literature about Emory University, Atlanta, and the surrounding area.
