In case anyone else is belligerent enough to be using netctl (Arch users
I guess), I got the conference wifi working with this config:

Description="LCA 2015 Conference Wifi"
Interface=wlp3s0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa-configsection
IP=dhcp
WPAConfigSection=(
  'ssid="LCA2015"'
  'proto=RSN'
  'key_mgmt=WPA-EAP'
  'eap=PEAP'
  'phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"'
  'identity="$user"'
  'password="$password"'
)
