The classroom may be a bit ccol, or a bit warm, or just right.
We encourage you to bring a jacket, sweatshirt or sweater.
Laptop or Tablet Recommended:
We encourage you to bring a laptop or tablet with you

As you drive out of the OKC airport,
look for the on-ramp to I-44
on your right.
There's only one such on-ramp,
which is actually I-44 westbound.

After you've been on I-44 W for
a few miles,
you'll come to a fork between I-44 W
and I-44 E.
Stay on I-44 W on the right side.

You'll come to a major curve.
DON'T take the I-44 W exit;
instead,
stay on the same road,
which will become I-240 E
(go figure).
-
After several miles,
take the I-35 S exit
(toward Dallas).
-
Follow I-35 S out of Oklahoma City,
through Moore,
and into Norman.

BE ALERT!
I-35 in Norman is undergoing a lot of construction,
specifically around the exit we want you to take.
-

(exit #108).
As you come to the end of the exit ramp,
there's a gas station on your left,
on the northwest corner
of OK Hwy 9 and 24th Ave SW.
-
Take OK Hwy 9 eastbound a few miles,
crossing traffic signals at
24th Ave SW, McGee, Imhoff, Chautauqua,
Jenkins and 12th Ave SE.
-
Get into the right hand (southmost) lane.
