high quality papers about novel research results, insights and lessons
learned from practical applications, and educational perspectives, all
involving Lisp dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp,

This is Italy's lucky year for Lisp: there's also the european Lisp
workshop in Genoa (where I live) in July... unfortunately ECOOP, the
main conference, is quite pricey! The ELS is much more affordable :)

You have not read the fine print.  Italian students' participation is
subject to an extra "volunteering clause" after registration :)

There is a list of accommodations listed at the symposium website. See

Does that help?
