Parking

Parking is at a premium on campus. Metered parking is available outside the Public Health Research Center along Assembly and College Streets. However, your best option may be to purchase a university parking pass once at the workshop—one dollar per day will purchase a parking pass for areas adjacent to the Public Health Research Center.
