Venue

DV2072 William Davis Building UTM

Getting There:


Paid parking in lot 8 is adjacent to the Recreation Athletics and Wellness Centre.

Use the entrance facing Outer Circle road.  Walk up the stairs up to the second floor.  Continue past Tim Hortons on the second floor and turn right.  Follow the hallway to the room 2072 -- look for the RASC banner.

OR

To use the elevators, continue straight on after you enter the building.  Take the elevator to the second floor.  Turn left out of the elevators and continue down the long hallway to room DW2072 -- look for the RASC banner.  If you go by Tim Hortons to the stairs going down, you've gone the wrong way.
