For those of you unaware, there are some issues relating to parking 
for this upcoming ICT. My recommendation is to print out a campus map 
before hand and follow the instructions as per WUSTL's parking 
services. If you have further questions day of, please contact me on 
my cell phone, (314) 769-5785.

>From Parking Services:

The following parking announcement has been issued for Washington 
University's Danforth Campus in preparation for the annual Thurtene 
Carnival , which is being held this year on April 12th and 13th in 
Parking Lot #4, located at Skinker Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway, 
directly in front of Brookings Hall. 

Beginning on Thursday, April 3 and continuing through Friday, April 
18, there will be a portion of Lot 4 that will be unavailable for 
parking (Lot 4 can be found on the Campus Parking Map, online at 
http://www.parking.wustl.edu/parkingmap_2008.pdf). 

The breakdown of unavailable parking spaces during this time is as 
follows: 

>From April 3 to April 15, a portion of the first 4 1/2 aisles in Lot 
4 (closest to Brookings Drive) will be unavailable for parking - 
however, there will be 78 spaces open for parking at the west end of 
each of these aisles. These spaces will be again available for 
parking on April 16. 

>From April 7 to April 13, the remaining 78 spaces in each of these 
aisles will be unavailable, which will make the first 4 1/2 aisles in 
Lot 4 entirely unavailable for parking. These spaces will be again 
available for parking April 14. 

>From April 11 to April 13, an additional 84 spaces will be 
unavailable on the east end of Lot 4. These spaces will be again 
available for parking April 15. 

All remaining parking spaces will be available on April 18, 2008. 

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause to those in the 
University Community who utilize this area for parking on a daily 
basis, and ask for your patience and understanding as Lot 4 is used 
to accommodate this event. The Thurtene Carnival is part of a long-
standing tradition at Washington University which serves as a great 
community event . 

In order to accommodate this event and also maintain parking spaces 
for our permit-holders, Parking Services would like to suggest the 
following options to be utilized during this partial parking lot 
closure: 

The Millbrook Garage , located on Throop Drive (across from the Law 
School) - red and yellow zones are available (check signage for 
designated zones). The Millbrook Garage is #25 on the Campus Parking 
Map (http://www.parking.wustl.edu/parkingmap_2008.pdf). 
The Snow Way Garage , located on Snow Way Drive (across from Small 
Group Housing) - red and yellow zones available (check signage for 
zones). The Snow Way Garage is #29 on the Campus Parking Map 
(http://www.parking.wustl.edu/parkingmap_2008.pdf). 
The West Campus parking garage/surface lots and surface lots at the 
North Campus - there are plenty of yellow spaces available for red 
and yellow permit-holders, with bus service between these locations 
to the Danforth Campus. The West and North Campuses are also located 
near MetroLink stations, which can be used for transportation to the 
Danforth Campus. Please remember that a valid U-Pass and WU ID (or 
payment of Metro fare) are required to utilize the MetroLink and the 
Red and Gold Lines. For information about Washington University's U-
Pass program, or to request a U-Pass, please visit 
parking.wustl.edu/upass.htm. 
The Danforth Center Garage , located beneath the University Center 
building (just west of the Edison Theatre/Mallinckrodt Center, and 
just east of Simon Hall) - red and yellow parking is permitted in 
this garage. The Danforth Center Garage is #104 on the Campus Parking 
Map. Vehicles may access the Danforth Center Garage by entering 
campus on Olympian Way, then making a right turn and proceeding 
through parking lot #35 (in front of Simon Hall) to the garage 
entrance. Annual red or yellow permit holders will be required to 
swipe their Washington University Employee ID or Student ID cards to 
enter and exit the Danforth Center Garage.

parking lot closure may be directed to the office of Parking Services
