Campus space and building access
News media, along with members of the public, are urged to avoid construction areas around the University of Iowa campus, and along the Iowa River, both for personal safety and to avoid interfering with flood preparation work. News media are free to shoot campus activities from public spaces at a safe distance away from construction and flood preparation work. Media should direct requests for other kinds of access to Stephen Pradarelli at stephen-pradarelli@uiowa.edu, 319-384-0007 (work), or 319-621-5263 (cell).
