Location
The 2016 Communicating Diversity Conference will be held in the Memorial Student Center (MSC) on the Texas A&M campus in College Station, Texas.
Parking
Texas A&M has a large and busy campus, parking is always tight. We encourage those who will be attending to save some extra time for navigating campus and finding parking places.
We suggest parking in the hourly slots at the University Center Garage (UCG). Alternative locations include the Central Campus Garage or Northside Garage.
For more information about visitor parking, see the university’s transportation services page. This page displays real-time parking availability and offers and app (for iPhone or Android) that can ease the parking process.
Please read all signs about parking carefully and follow all regulations. Campus officials can and will tow cars parked in unauthorized locations.
