  IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 

CHANGE OF LOCATION FOR MONTHLY LECTURE

CHEMISTRY LECTURE HALL
Room 3 (basement of the Chemistry Building)


Due to campus-wide renovation and construction at Los Angeles City College, the Monthly Lecture has been moved from Franklin Hall to the Chemistry Lecture Hall. Franklin Hall is closed for renovation. The Chemistry Lecture Hall is in the Chemistry Building and the basement entrance may be accessed from either the handicapped access on the east side (next to the new Library) or from the south side of the Chemistry Building. The entrance to the Chemistry Lecture Hall (Chemistry 3) can be found in the middle of the basement on the western side of the building. Off-campus on-street parking should be available on Willowbrook Avenue and nearby adjacent streets.  The MetroRail Red Line is also nearby at the Santa Monica Boulevard station.
