The Business Club is hosting a field trip to Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) and Chicago Stock Exchange (CSE) on May 25th. It will be a two-day trip. The university will provide transportation. Here's the tentative agenda:

11:00 - 12:00pm Lunch and Hotel Check-in
12:30 pm Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT)

This is IMPORTANT:
If you are interested in coming, please RSVP to Peace Li (li.547@osu.edu) or to Brandon Overholt (overholt.21@osu.edu) by May 18th. The CBOT and CSE require us to provide them a list of visitors in advance. Please also state clearly in your email if you need university transportation, or you want to drive your own vehicle. Seats are limited, reply soon. Please do not RSVP unless you have the serious intent to come so other students can.

Due to the busy season in the hotel industry, especially for hotels around Grand Park area in Chicago, we estimated a $50 - $60 per students for the hotel cost. This rate may change if we can get a better deal. We will have a group meeting prepare the trip after the RSVP deadline.
