WHERE DO I PARK?
Your name will be on a list at the Visitor Information Booth in lot 15G (in front of the Athletic/Alumni Building). When you arrive, give the Visitor Information Booth attendant your name and let them know that you are here for NHO. The attendant will give you a pass valid for one full day of free parking. You will then be directed to parking lot 15D. There is a fee for parking in other lots including covered lots.

WHAT ABOUT LUNCH?
You have two options for lunch: You will be given a complimentary lunch coupon for one of our residential hall restaurants (your lunch card will be valid for a year). You may also choose to visit one of our many dining services options on campus; dining services at the University Center will be your closest option during your lunch break.

WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW?
With a comprehensive benefits plan and several retirement options to choose from, you might want to review the plans and bring any questions with you to ROAR. Who knows, you might just help a fellow Cougar out with a well thought out question.
