Eaton Hall directly faces the Oregon State Capitol,
the white marble building with the golden pioneer on top. Enter
the campus from State Street through the brick gateposts and proceed
through the rose garden straight along the path to Eaton Hall.
If the doors facing State Street are for some reason not unlocked,
proceed to the other side of the building to the opposite set
of double doors.
The conference lectures will be held on the fourth floor of
Eaton Hall. There is an elevator on the main floor,
hidden in one of the side halls, or you can take the side stairs
to the fourth floor. The main stairs end on the third floor;
to proceed to the fourth floor, you will need to switch to the
side stairs in the wings of the building.
