BUSING DROP-OFF AND PARKING INFORMATION:

A map of the Campus can be found here:  UW-Stevens Point Campus Map

Buses will drop-off students on Reserve Street near the Learning Resource Center (#8 on Campus Map) and the Dreyfus University Center (#40 on Campus Map). Buses will then park in Lot Q (in yellow) which is the only parking lot designated bus parking. Students will be picked up on Fourth Avenue in front of the Health Enhancement Center (#5 on Campus Map) at the end of the day.  

NOTE:  Buses need to follow the above rules.  The City of Stevens Point coordinates this drop off so it does not interfere with the city's school busing system at a nearby school.

 

SUBSTITUTIONS AND CANCELLATIONS:

Substitutions may be made at any time upon notification to UWSP Continuing Education.  Substitutes must complete a registration form and indicate who the substitution is with.  Cancellations will be accepted if received in writing until February 19, 2010.  Cancellations after February 8 will be assessed a $25 cancellation fee.  No refunds will be given after February 19, 2010, except in the case of inclement weather or unsafe travel conditions.   UWSP Continuing Education reserves the right to substitute workshop presenters and/or cancel workshops due to insufficient enrollment.
