Is anyone a member of any professional societies?  I thought of this today as I was thinking about my trip to DC in the fall for the Society for Neuroscience conference and how I may need a roommate.

    I am, but not that one.  I know in the past when I've attended conferences, they've had a section of the website where you can get in touch with other students that need roommates, either message boards or 'want ad' type things.

    Yes, SfN has message board things but I was just wondering here out of curiosity.

    I am!  Just, not that one.  :)  I'm also presenting at my first conference for them this summer!!!  I'm both excited and nervous.

    ETA: I also live in the DC area..if you're not wanting a roommate, and you're able to drive, I'd recommend not staying on site and getting a room in Woodbridge or Fairfax.

    I am in several professional societies (NASPA, ACPA, AFA, and ACAA).  The conferences are great places to network. I always have a blast at them, specially the one I went to in Baltimore this past March.  But definitely look at the socieites borads/facebook groups to find a potential roommate.
