From the West - Using US36/I-72: Leave highway by exit ramp to 6th St. North, drive a short distance to a traffic light, turn right (east) onto Hazel Dell, which curves and becomes 11th Street. This goes over I-55 on a bridge, to a stoplight. If you make a left turn at the light, it is again Hazel Dell and can be followed to West Lake Shore Drive (traffic light, small school bldg.) where you turn right (south) and reach the north boundary of UIS campus. From the east - using US36/72: At intersection with I-55, choose I-55 South, following it to Stevenson Drive exit (#94). Turn right (west) at top of exit ramp, proceed through 2 traffic signals; at 3rd signal, turn left (south) into West Lake Shore Drive and continue to the edge of the UIS campus. From the south - using I-55: Leave the interstate at exit (#90) for Toronto Road. Turn right (east) at the top of exit ramp, proceed through small business area, over a rail crossing, past a Springfield Fire Dept. Station; follow the roadway as it curves left and passes CACC (Capital Area Career Center). Following CACC's campus, turn left (north) into the 11th St. extension road. Any of the next three right turns will lead you to the UIS campus. OR: Alternative route: when Toronto Road curves left and passes CACC, keep going ahead to the traffic light at the intersection with Shepherd Road (at the entrance to the Lincoln Land Community College campus); turn left (north) and proceed a short distance to the south edge of the UIS campus. From the north - using I-55: Leave the interstate at the exit (#94) for Stevenson Drive. Turn right (west) at top of exit ramp, proceed through 2 traffic signals: at 3rd signal, turn left (south) into West Lake Shore Drive and continue to the edge of the UIS campus. Once you get near campus: If you proceed straight ahead through the traffic light at 11th /Hazel Dell, you are on the 11th St. Extension. Follow roadway to a STOP sign, at intersection of 11th St. Extension and campus roadway called Ernest Hemingway Drive, where the University of Illinois at Springfield sign is (considered the main entrance to the campus); make a left turn into the boulevard roadway (Hemingway Drive). At the next STOP sign, you are at the edge of the UIS campus. If you proceed straight ahead - through 2 stop signs - you will approach the "teardrop" entrance to the PAC building. Which building: The registration desk will be on the Main Concourse of the Public Affairs Center (PAC) just inside the circle drive on the first floor.
