Welcome to Dartmouth! We’re so pleased to welcome you to Dartmouth College and to Hanover, New Hamp- shire for Permutation Patterns 2018. We hope that you enjoy the conference and all the College and the Upper Valley have to offer. We encourage you to take some time this week to explore the beautiful and historic Dartmouth campus—see the Things to Do section for a few suggestions. If you need anything during your stay, please don’t hesitate to reach out to one of our local organizers or our department administrators, Tracy Moloney and Amy Potter, all of whom will have special nametags with a black background. Whether you came from down the street or across the globe, thank you for trekking your way here through the woods of New Hampshire and we hope you have a fun and productive week!

Things to Do See the Orozco Murals in Baker Library José Clemente Orozco (1883–1959) was a Mexican social realist painter. One of his most famous murals is the Epic of American Civilization, which covers 3200 square feet in the basement of Baker Library. Visit the Life Sciences Greenhouse The Life Sciences Greenhouse has an extensive and varied plant collection with a wide range of diversity, utility, and beauty. Among the most popular and diverse of their collections is the Brout Orchid Collection, home to about a thousand orchids of many species and hybrids. The orchid collection is in two rooms. There are three other rooms open to the public: a tropical room, a sub-tropical room, and a xeric room housing cacti and succulents. The Life Sciences building is next to the Dewey parking lot. Go for a walk Dartmouth’s campus is full of historic landmarks such as Bartlett Tower, a statue of 3 Robert Frost (who was a Dartmouth student for a very brief time in the 1890s), and Webster Cottage.
