Campus Map
Take I-40 East to Wade Avenue, following signs to stay on Wade Avenue. Soon after you pass the Whole Foods (in the shopping center on the left), turn right at the stoplight at Faircloth St. At the next stoplight, turn left on Hillsborough St. As you approach the NCSU campus, turn right on Dan Allen Dr., go down the hill and turn left on Yarborough Dr. (passing through the open traffic gates). Follow this road through parking lots until it forks, at which point take the left fork and you will arrive at a parking lot at the back of Riddick Lab. Walk to the left (west) of the building so that you can enter from the front side through the big doors on the 3rd floor.
