Morrill Hall will be open for the football game on September 1.

However, there will be NO PARKING available in the lot outside the museum due to game day activities. Visitors are encouraged to use other available campus parking. ADA spots to the east of Morrill Hall will remain available, but users will need to pay the UNL Parking & Transit Services game day parking fee.
