Hi Lars,
I went to UCSIA last April for a conference on Media and Religion. Good venue, well organised conference, great content and very central to the rest of town. they also seem to heavily subsidise everything (the conference cost was if I remember correctly somewhere around 20euro for a 3 day event). So yeah, I would definitely recommend the place.
cheers

Jim!
I wondered if you knew anything about this place, the University
Centre St-Ignatius Antwerp (UCSIA)? The line-up is pretty impressive,
and they pay everything except travel...
Best wishes,
Lars
