DESCRIPTION / DIRECTIONS: Thatcher Hall is a large dining facility attached to the Barrington Student Union. The ground floor is Dexter's Cafeteria; the second floor is the banquet hall and is where SOAR holds its luncheons. When you park in lots #8 or #9, walk up past Barrington Student Union; the next building is Thatcher Hall. Use the staircase (or elevator) to get to the second floor dining room.

PARKING: Park in lot #8 or #9. "SOAR shuttle cars" will pick you up and take you back to the lot, if you don't want to (or can't) walk down to Thatcher Hall.

ACCESSIBILITY: There is an small elevator on the right just past the counter in Dexter's Cafe (downstairs). Once upstairs, pass through the small room into the large dining area.

RESTROOMS: Restrooms are on the ground level, just as you enter the building.
