Booking a Room
So you need to book a room for your meeting, event, class, or special project? You've arrived at the right place. The English Department controls nine rooms which we can book independently, or you can coordinate with Dietrich College to request one of the five rooms they control by submitting your email request to hssrooms@andrew.cmu.edu. Beyond these rooms, you have the ability to book any of the other rooms on campus on your own through the booking system: 25Live.
