Directions to the event:
Using the street address for Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources (180 East Green Street, Athens, GA) will bring you onto East Campus Road. There is a traffic light at the intersection of East Campus Road and East Green Street. Turn on to East Green Street (there is only one way to turn) and after you pass the big brick Davison Life Sciences Building on the right, turn into the large parking lot on the right and park there. There are no parking restrictions on weekends on the UGA campus (but don’t park in the Dean’s space). The Warnell (Forestry Resources) complex is directly across the parking lot from Davison. It consists of 4 brick buildings, one of which (Building 4) is easy to see from the parking lot, since it has a crazy pattern of red and yellow bricks and white “stucco”. Take the walkway from the parking lot toward Building 4. It leads down into a courtyard formed by the buildings in the complex. Pass Building 4 on your left and when you come out on the mall, turn right on the walkway. The walkway will take you to the front of Building 1, which faces the mall. Climb the steps up to the front door. Once inside, you can turn either way on the hallway and take the steps to the 3rd floor. The door to the lecture hall where we will meet (room 1-304) is right where you exit the stairwell.
For folks who plan to attend but cannot climb stairs, there is elevator access to the 3rd floor of Building 1. The directions are the same as those above up to the point where you are in the courtyard. Instead of proceeding through the courtyard to the mall, once in the courtyard, follow the handicap access signs to the rear of Building 1, where you will find a door at ground level. The elevator is just inside that door. Since the door will be locked, please contact Scott Merkle (smerkle@uga.edu) prior to the meeting so he can make arrangements with you to meet in the courtyard to open the door.
