Public Parking

Plenty of free parking is available at Barton Coliseum for the Commencement

Ceremony, as illustrated in the diagram of the State Fairgrounds. The diagram

also indicates which gates will be open to traffic during the ceremony.

Staff from Barton Coliseum will be on site in the parking lots to assist in parking.

These attendants will also stay on the lot during the ceremony, however it is

highly recommended that you lock your vehicle and remove valuables or place

them in the trunk of your car during the ceremony.

Students and visitors should enter the Coliseum through the WEST ENTRANCE,

since access on the east side will be restricted.
 

Entering the Fairgrounds

Students and Guests: enter at the Main Entrance via Gates 1 or 2 and park

   in lots west of the coliseum.

Faculty and participants: enter on Schiller Street and proceed through Gates 8,

   7 or 8. Reserved and open parking lots are available. Reserved lots require

   a parking pass.

Be sure to allow plenty of time to reach the Coliseum and find a

parking space, since traffic is typically very heavy by 2:00 p.m.
