Directions and Parking Info:
The College Park campus is 1.5 miles south of the Beltway exit 25B. Sign-in and morning lectures are in the Van Munching Hall (business school) which is located in the southwest side of campus. Afternoon demos will take place in several buildings accross campus (expect a good amount of walking to see all the demos).

Because on May 29, summer school is not yet in session, no permit is required to park in Lot 1 near Van Munching Hall (LOT1 ONLY). A free UMd shuttle also runs every 15 minutes from the College Park Metro station to the Student Union in the center of campus.
