2. Under the Campus dropdown, select Locations.

3. Click Campus on the top-right hand side and the following list will dropdown. Depending on the selected campus location, the map will update.

4. All of the buildings will be flagged with red markers. Zoom in on the building you want to know the name of, and simply click the marker to display the name of the building.

5. If you are looking for directions to that building, select the Google Maps logo in the bottom right-hand corner.

If You're Looking for Your Class Schedule...

1. Select the hamburger menu in the top left hand corner on the opening screen of the app.
