HOW DO I GET TO THE LAB?
Finding your way to USU in Logan is as easy as Google Maps. Parking, on the other hand, takes a bit more planning.
Step by step walking directions to get you to the Emma Eccles Jones College of Education and Human Services from the Big Blue Terrace:
- The best lot for visitors to park in is the Big Blue Terrace, which is $2/hr, max $10 for the day.
- Parking is Free after 7:30 PM and on the weekend.
- More information about visitor parking can be found here: https://parking.usu.edu/parking-information/visitor-parking
Step by step walking directions to get you to the Emma Eccles Jones College of Education and Human Services from the Big Blue Terrace:
- Head north on USU campus walkway toward Aggie Blvd
- Once on the Aggie Blvd, turn right (towards closer mountains)
- Google Maps coordinates, the building you want is on the left side of the street if you are facing the closer mountains. https://goo.gl/maps/9BzeKG1w2jxdqz1W7
- Enter through either front door into the building atrium.
- Straight ahead of you are either stairs, an elevator, or both.
- Go on up to the 2nd floor, head toward the mountains again to find Room 230. We'll have new tags soon, but for now, look for the "Science Education Center".
- Give a knock and if anyone is in the lab they will assist you!
