From Albuquerque, take I25 south direction Belen/Las
Cruces. Leave I25 at Exit 150 which takes you onto California Street. Turn
right into Bullock Ave. (there is a KFC at the corner) and go straight
crossing two intersections with stop signs. At the third intersection you
will see the campus and the campanile in front of you on your left. Keep
going straight. The street will curve left, and you will hit another stop
sign. Here, you will see plenty of parking to your left and right. If you
turn into the left parking lot (now you are facing east = away from M-Mountain,
towards campus) the building to your left is Jones Hall. Jones Annex is
to the east of Jones Hall, embedded in between the cooling tower and the
old Jones Hall. There is a catwalk connecting the two buildings. Rm. 101
is located downstairs on the south side of the building. The Lavender Lounge
is on the second floor of old Jones Hall, the first room to your right
as you come up the main staircase located close to the entrance facing
south-east.
