Arrival and Designated Parking
Campus maps that identify accessible parking and other features are available as a download (above) or by request at the Front Gate or Admissions Office. Visitors whose vehicles display appropriate permits may park in posted accessible parking spaces.

Wheelchair Accessibility
Accessible entrances to those buildings that are open to the public display the international symbol of accessibility. Also note, though most of the campus is wheelchair accessible, there are some areas that are steeply graded.

Restroom Accessibility
There are many accessible restrooms in the public areas of campus. These locations are marked on the map and can be identified by the international symbol of accessibility.

Service Animals
Service animals are welcome in all public areas and must be leashed while on campus.

Requests for Assistance
Requests for sign language interpretation, auxiliary aids and/or services are welcome and will be considered on a case by case basis. Requests should be directed to the event sponsor at least 30 days in advance.
