2025 Annual Meeting
The 2025 AESE annual meeting will take place October 1–5 (Wednesday–Sunday) at Biddle Hotel on the campus of Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, USA. Located approximately 1 hour south of Indianapolis (and the nearest airport), Bloomington is a vibrant campus town with many restaurants; nightlife options; and cozy, tree-lined streets. Featured in the 1979 movie “Breaking Away,” Bloomington and Monroe County are internationally known for the quarrying (“cutting”) of Salem Limestone, used in hundreds of government buildings and landmarks around the country.
AGENDA
The following summary agenda offers a glimpse at the meeting programs. A full agenda is forthcoming. Agenda is subject to change.
