Office & Parking
The ATLAS office is located in Drew Residence Hall, on the north side of Hewitt Avenue, east of Snelling Avenue (between Snelling and Pascal).
Parking is available in Lot B, just east of Drew Hall. Please note that during the school year, you will need to get a parking pass from ATLAS staff before parking in the lot.
To find our office, enter Drew Hall from the main entrance off of Hewitt (up a staircase facing south), and walk straight forward down the hallway. Go down a short stair and continue till you reach a door on the right with a sign above it that says “Stairwell to Rooms 1-11.” Enter that doorway, which leads down a long hallway. Our office is Suite 72, the second suite on the left.
