How should I dress?

This is a "business casual" event. For presenters and panelists, you are representing your work, your advisers, your school and yourself, so dress how you would like to be seen. For general attendees, there is no dress code but you never know who you may meet and might want to impress. If you need more help, you may always turn to Wikipedia for guidance.
