Directions to parking & unloading for the fair at Squires
   
To unloading at Squires Student Center for the fair on Tuesday:
  Guests of The Inn at Virginia Tech may arrange shuttle service directly with the Inn. For guests of other hotels using private vehicles, do as follows:
  Take Prices Fork Road toward downtown and campus. Stay on Prices Fork Road until it ends on Main Street; turn right onto Main Street.
  From Main Street go straight through the first traffic light and turn right at the next street, the Alumni Mall entrance to campus. (Do not attempt to unload materials on the College Avenue side of Squires; you will be ticketed.)
  On Alumni Mall, make a U-turn just before Torgersen Hall (the bridge building over the Mall) and proceed to the unloading area on the Mall side of Squires.
  Student volunteers will be available to assist you in taking your materials inside Squires.
  You will enter Squires on the second floor; employer check-in is on that level.
  You may check in when you unload, or return to check in after parking. The student volunteers who will assist you with unloading can provide you with a parking pass and directions to the Special Event Parking off Duck Pond Drive (below). The Special Event Parking Lot is the only lot designated for CONNECTION participants staying in off-campus hotels. Career Services does not have authority to permit parking anywhere else on campus.
  Our CONNECTION shuttle service will run between the Special Event Parking Lot and Squires (Alumni Mall entrance) on 15-minute intervals from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
 
Directions to Special Event Parking off Duck Pond Drive:
  From Prices Fork Road, as you pass the Holiday Inn on your left, get in the right lane.
  Turn right at the next light onto West Campus Drive.
  Take your first right onto Duck Pond Drive.
  Go .3 mile and take your first right. You will see the Special Event Parking Lot immediately to your left.
  The Special Event Parking Lot is the only lot designated for CONNECTION participants staying in off-campus hotels. Career Services does not have authority to permit parking anywhere else on campus.
  Our CONNECTION shuttle service will run between the Special Event Parking Lot and Squires (Alumni Mall entrance) on 15-minute intervals from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.  Check-in on Squires second floor, same level as Alumni Mall entrance.
   
Removing your materials at the close of the fair day:
  Please remove all materials from your booth at the close of the fair on Tuesday. (If you are staying to interview on Wednesday, your interview location will not be the same as your fair day booth location.)
  Student volunteers will be available to assist beginning at 3:30 pm.
  The shuttle service to the Special Event Parking Lot on Duck Pond Drive will run until 5:30 pm from Squires (Alumni Mall entrance; same level as employer check-in).
   
If you are conducting interviews through Connection on Wednesday:
  Guests of The Inn at Virginia Tech may arrange shuttle service directly with the Inn.
  Guests of off-campus hotels using private vehicles: Go to the Special Event Parking Lot on Duck Pond Drive where you parked on Tuesday. Our CONNECTION shuttle service will run between the Special Event Parking Lot and Squires (Alumni Mall entrance; same level as employer check-in) on 15-minute intervals from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm.
  See interview scheduling for details on that process.
