Directions and Maps for NJRSF-2005

The NJRSF for 2005 will be held in the College Avenue Gym on the Rutgers-New Brunswick campus. The symposium and awards ceremony will be held in the Multipurpose Room of the Rutgers Student Center, which is right next door.

The official directions, on the Rutgers website, for the Rutgers Student Center, are shown here. Rutgers has also provided a useful printable map that shows the two main routes you will use in the vicinity of the College Avenue Campus.

For those coming from the north, heading south on I287, I actually recommend a different route, which is considerably simpler:

Follow I287 South to Exit 10.
Take Exit 10, turning right onto Easton Avenue, towards New Brunswick.
Go approximately four miles (past St. Peter's Medical Center). At the light just beyond the medical center, make a left onto Ray Street.
Follow Ray Street a short distance to the end, and you will be facing Lot #30, which is directly behind the College Avenue Gym.

Maps

Overview showing the relationship to I-287. Note the rather confusing fact that at this point, when you are traveling "South" on I-287, you are actually traveling roughly east (to the right on the map).
Detail showing the detailed local roads. Note that the parking lot you should use is #30, which you enter from Sicard St. at the point where Ray Street intersects. The parking lot and the gym lie between Sicard and College Ave.
Campus Map This map shows the local vicinity of the Gym, with a number of the other Rutgers buildings marked. This is from the Rutgers website.
Campus Overview This map has been sent to us by the Rutgers organizers, showing an overview of the College Avenue Campus, with the two main routes to the parking lot marked in red. This map helps put the others in perspective, so I recommend you make a copy of it as well. This one was NOT available when the packets were mailed to the students and advisors.
