From June 19-22 the University will proudly host Special Olympics Minnesota.

Here is some information about ongoing construction projects to keep in mind while getting to, from, and around campus.

The full closure of University Avenue will lead to delays on and around campus—plan extra time for your commute.

Oak Street SE between University Avenue and Washington Avenue will be reduced to one lane in each direction beginning June 16 through August. 

I–94 will be closed June 13–16 between I–35W and Huron Blvd. with traffic shifting to the westbound side after. Some ramps near campus will be closed.

During this time, use Buford Circle, just to the west, to access Lot 106, 169 and Upper Buford Circle.
