Conference Reception Join us at Carnegie Mellon University for food and drinks, see some of the exciting work at CMU, and celebrate the ASSETS 25th Anniversary! The reception will begin at 7pm, and you can get there using our provided shuttles or public bus (61 or 71 routes). Our shuttles are 4 yellow school buses that will leave the conference venue at 6:30pm sharp. Be outside the hotel at the Grant St. rear entrance (near Bruegger’s Bagels) before 6:30pm! The buses will drop you off on Forbes avenue near the Gates-Hillman Center. Enter through the Forbes Ave entrance (4th floor) and go upstairs to the 6th floor. There you will need to show a photo ID (US driver’s license/state ID or foreign passport please!) to receive a wristband and two drink tickets. If you miss the 6:30pm bus, they will continue to circulate to bring people to the reception and back, with the last bus leaving CMU at 9:30pm to return to the One Hotel by 10pm. |

Please explore the 3 floors of art (floors 4,5, and 6) while you are there, but food and beverage must stay on the ground level. |
