Abstract
The 52nd Annual Conference of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning (ACSP) took place from 13 to 16 October 2011 in Salt Lake City, Utah. The conference was hosted by the University of Utah, whose graduate programme in urban and regional planning was launched in 2003. Salt Lake City is an intermountain city, whose 2010 metropolitan population is slightly over one million persons. The city is well-known for being the world headquarters of the Mormon religion. The conference was attended by approximately 900 individuals, primarily including planning school faculty and graduate students as well as planning practitioners. It is the primary conference for planning academics in the US. Conference attendees were welcomed by Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker, who also led a bicycle tour of the city. Mayor Becker is a practicing planner and avid enthusiast for making cities safe and manageable for bicycles.
