Accessibility Information
General On-Campus Events:
- There is a special accommodation access area for parking needs. Please view the map for additional information on this service. At the special accommodation access area, University personnel will assist the passenger with special needs to get into the pertinent building with one or two family members while the driver is directed to a parking lot.
Graduate Commencement & Baccalaureate Mass in the Byron Center:
- There are areas marked for those guests that need to park their personal wheelchair in the Byron Center. The wheelchair accessible seating is in the first row of the second section of seats. The University has staff dedicated to servicing this area. Please note that we are able to allow one or two family members to sit in this area with the guest in the wheelchair and other guests will need to sit elsewhere in the Byron. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
Mohegan Sun Arena:
- Parking for guests with special needs is available near the West Gate; you should stay in the left lane as you enter the Arena grounds. To obtain a permit for handicap accessible parking at the Arena, please contact Peggy Burke directly at 570-941-7520 or peggy.burke@scranton.edu.
- Seating for guests with special needs is available in Row S which surrounds the Arena at the main concourse level. In order to best serve persons with special needs, we ask that no more than two persons sit with the guests in Row S. Usually additional family members can sit in seating right in front of their family members. See Row "S" Handicapped seating map for additional information.
If you have questions regarding accessibility issues at any of the Commencement events, please contact Peggy Burke in the Office of the Provost at 570-941-7520.
