Go west from Kansas City on Highway K-10. (K-10 intersects Highway I-435 at the southwest corner of I-435's loop. From I-435, watch closely for the Lawrence exit on your right; this is K-10.

Turn left at the traffic light at the intersection of 19th Street.
You are now on KU's West Campus. When you come to Constant Avenue, turn right. The road will then curve to the left & go up a small hill. The second building on your left, a brown building that looks like a fort (with protected windows), is Nichols Hall. At the top of the hill, on left side of road, there is a circular drive with meters for "visitors' parking." Or you can continue past the circular drive and turn left into the Nichols Hall parking lot; there are a few meters for "visitors' parking" along the middle island.*

Go north on I-29 to West I-435 exit (will say to Topeka). Follow I-435 west, which will take you northwest and then south a long distance (~20 miles), toward I-70.
Watch CAREFULLY for a sign that says either "Topeka" or "Lawrence," (past Cabela's and Nebraska Furniture Mart) and take the exit indicating I-70 (West and East).
