It runs every 20 or 30 minutes from the airport (just outside the baggage claim on the same side as the taxis and the parking shuttles) via downtown to CMU. Although there are more expensive shuttle services, none of them except a taxi (which will cost you at least $40) will bring you all the way to campus. The last stop of the bus will drop you off on Forbes avenue, just across building 13 on the map I include as a pdf-file. The bus runs until around midnight. If you stay at the Holiday Inn you have to get off slightly earlier: probably the best stop is at Forbes avenue across Schenley Drive (across the street from the Pitt's Cathedral of Learning). </DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 17px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Parking:</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">If you drive into Pittsburgh you should arrange for parking in advance: call 412 268 1125. They will probably put you in the East campus parking garage (P5).</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 17px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Checking into your rooms:</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">The summer housing office is in Donner hall, which is building number 62 (D8) on the map. Go there to pick up the key for your room (they will give you directions to the building) and pay for it. They will want you to pay for the first two days on arrival, but you can also settle the full amount right away. </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I look forward to you all next week,</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Niels Taatgen</DIV></BODY></HTML>
