On Thursday, March 24th the College will be holding our 21st Educational Technology Day. This event attracts over 800 visitors to our campus to explore new technologies and learn more about how technology can be used both in and out of the classroom.
In order to accommodate these visitors we will need to utilize U-Lot (BLUE), the BLUE section of O-Lot, and the S-Lot Extension (RED) parking lots. These areas will be unavailable for regular use from 5 AM 3/24 – 5 PM 3/24.
Faculty and Staff who usually park in U or O lot should use Z and C lots. Students should utilize Y lot. A special shuttle will be making a loop between Z- and Y-lots and the Textor Flagpole from 7 AM to 9:30 AM, and 3 PM to 5:30 PM. We also encourage you to take advantage of your TCAT bus pass and ride the bus to campus on this day.
In past we have parked our visitors at the South Hill Business Campus, but due to changes that is not an option this year. Next year we anticipate that we will be able to use the new parking areas that will come on-line as part of the A&E Center. So we see this as a one-year situation.
Ed Tech Day is an important event for the campus, and outside of some athletic events and commencement it is arguably the largest public showcase event that we hold. The College benefits in many ways from this exposure. I appreciate your understanding and adjusting your parking plans for this day. We also hope that you take advantage of this great free event – please visit www.ithaca.edu/edtechday for the complete schedule and details.
