Carnegie Mellon University Dorm: $28/night for Single Occupancy with linen $18.75/night for Double Occupancy with linen The dorm is 1.4 miles from the hotel. It is an easy walk through the CMU and Pitt campuses and adjoining business district, though obviously much more pleasant in good weather. We hope to provide a shuttle service at the beginning and the end of the day. There are also city buses that take you within a couple blocks at either end for $1.75 each way. The dorm is not air conditioned. The average high temperature for these dates in Pittsburgh is 78F and the average low is 54F. The weather is quite varied at this time of year. It can be very hot and humid, or it can be cool and rainy. Click here to register online Book Exhibit The Founding Conference of the Cultural Studies Associations will include a book exhibit specially organized by the Library of Social Science (LSS). LSS seeks your input in developing a comprehensive collection of titles. The book exhibit will include publications encompassing the full range of topics on culture in relation to social, aesthetic, historical, economic, political, or semiotic conditions and issues. It will bring together recent and significant titles and contribute substantially to the intellectual value of our conference. We especially wish to include BOOKS WRITTEN BY AUTHORS WHO WILL BE SPEAKING AT THE MEETING. If you are an AUTHOR and wish to have your book included - or are aware of recent titles in the field that should be included in this display - please complete and return this form.
