QFS98 -- Location:
QFS98 will be held at the
University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA, USA. Amherst
is located in
the Pioneer Valley in rural western Massachusetts, about 90
miles west of Boston, MA.
Amherst has a resident population of about 25,000 people, and expands to
about 55,000 when the University and area colleges are in session. These schools will have ended the
regular academic year, and summer sessions will have not yet started at the time of QFS98. Amherst is a fine example of a
small New England college town, with rich cultural traditions. The conference is expected to be held
in the Campus Center Building, adjacent to one of the physics buidlings, Hasbrouck Lab, which can
be seen on a
campus map by
clicking the directions option, and then the campus map option on the subsequent pages.
