North American Biotechnologist Council 28th Annual Meeting
 
Pullman:

Pullman is in southeastern Washington state, near the Idaho state line.  In early June the average temperatures are 68/44 and sunny weather. The days will be about 16 hours long. The local region, called the Palouse, was a prairie that is now a significant agricultural region and in June the rolling hills will be covered with fields of green wheat and barley, interspersed with dry peas, lentils and chickpeas. The hills are also a component of the WSU campus—land that had little value because it was too steep to plow could be made useful in this way.
