Housing

Off-Campus housing

For off-campus housing see the Roseville Visitors Association website. Participants who choose off-campus housing should make arrangements directly with nearby motels. There is no public transportation directly to campus, nor is there a transportation allowance. Participants who wish to live off campus should have a vehicle at their disposal.

On-campus housing at Bethel University

Housing at Bethel University is available in the new Lissner Hall. There will be no adolescents housed in Lissner during the institute. We will try to house participants on the first or third floors. Lissner is equipped with an elevator.

Lissner is made up of three-bedroom suites. Each suite has three private bedrooms and shared restroom facilities. You may download a floor plan of the suite.

Costs: There is a $20 one-time charge for linen service.
Single Occupancy: One person per suite: $30 per person, per night (Total cost: $350 for 11 nights)

Double Occupancy: Two persons per suite: $23 per person, per night (Total cost: $273 for 11 nights)

These costs apply to participants who choose to bring a spouse, as well as to those who select a roommate from among the participants. Participants may find a roommate prior to the institute through e-mail communication.

Participants who choose to live at Bethel for the institute should e-mail the project director, Daniel Ritchie (d-ritchie@bethel.edu), after you have decided on single or double occupancy (and found a roommate). Unless you state otherwise, we will assume you will spend eleven nights on campus, June 18-29 inclusive.
