Traffic Flow
We have had a few near misses from drivers going the wrong way up the one way driveway on the north side of Discovery and the one way drive behind the performing arts building. This is very dangerous! Please observe all traffic signs on campus and drive only in the directions permitted...even in off hours and weekends. Thanks for your help with this!
