Continue walking down College Ave until you reach Talbot Ave, which will be the first street on your left. (You will pass another entrace to the school directly after the track. Don't go in there.)
Turn left onto Talbot and walk for a minute or two. On your right will be a large brown brick building; the Campus Center.

At the top of a small hill, you will pass a large dormitory on your left. Do not turn in here.
Take your first left onto Professor's Row and drive and go through the 4-way intersection.
At the next intersection will be the campus center. There is parking available if you turn right. (and after that left if there is none immediately available.)
If you are looking for Anderson Hall, continue straight through the intersection until you reach College Ave. Anderson will be the large building ahead of you at the end of the road. (Use the entrance in the front to the left of the building.)
