At 4 p.m. today, the First Year Convocation will be conducted by Academic Affairs at the Convocation Center.

Stop . . . and read about campus traffic changes
A four-way stop is a new feature at the intersection of University Loop East and U Street, on the east side of the new residence halls.  Also, Danner Ave. on the south side of the halls is being converted to one-way, headed west, and some additional head-in parking. The intersection of Aggie Road and Caraway features a new flag plaza and altered traffic flow. Changes have been made to enhance safety, so be alert!  Also, click here to access the latest parking regulations, approved earlier this year by the Parking/Motor Vehicle Committee.
