Directions from Lot 51 (the credit union) to the Fiber Optics Building (Easton Auditorium)

A lot of our campus is under construction. From Lot 51, you should go into and through the Busch Campus Center. When you exit out the back of the building, go to your right and pass between the main engineering building (concrete stucco) on you left and the Fiber Optics building on your right along the sidewalk. Enter the Fiber Optics building and you will be in the foyer to the auditorium.

Parking also available in Lots 59, 60B & 67

This link takes you to a map of these lots. Unfortunately you can't see them all, plus the building, in one screen shot but if you move around the map you will see where these lots are in relation to the fiber optics building.
