Proper attire for a pre-interview case conference?

Hey. I have an interview in a few days where we are invited to attend a case conference the evening before the interview, which is followed by a dinner with the residents (the conference will be attended by residents and faculty).
What would be the best thing to wear to that? I'm assuming a suit is too formal but since the faculty will be there, I'm not completely sure. Also, I wouldn't really want to wear the suit to the residents dinner and we'll be going directly from the conference--should I dress for the conference as I would have for just the dinner? Any ideas?? Thanks!

i don't think anyone expects you to show up in a suit. button down shirt and slacks would probably suffice. if it's cold, go with a sweater
