For parking locations, please refer to the campus parking map. The closest parking lots are located behind James C. Colgate Hall, next to 113 Broad Street, and in front of Huntington Gymnasium. Due to the size of Reunion this year, there will be no parking on Whitnall Field. Please note that Lally Lane is closed to thru traffic.
