For those of you who are not familiar with the location and are on campus, we are on Level 1 of the Student Center in room B106. (adjacent to the Courtyard and Courtyard Study Lounge) If you are coming from outside of campus, the Student Center is located at the corner of West Peltason and Pereira. Please park in the Student Center parking structure located on that corner. You will be entering the structure on the 2nd floor. You do not stop at the booth to speak with attendant, just continue into the structure. You will need to go up at least one floor to park. Only park in unmarked spaces between levels 3 and 6. Please take a photo of your license plate if you don't know it. The Student Center is directly across the street from the parking structure. Enter through the glass doors and head straight back. You will see a large electronic sign that directs you to go left to the Blood Donor Center. Once you turn left you will wind your way through the student center following the directional signs on the walls. Enter through the double doors that say Blood donor center, pass by the vending machines and you will see the donor center immediately on your left. If you need a parking permit, please let our staff know right away once you are inside the donor center. We will use your license plate number to create a virtual permit for you.
