Classroom Locations and Directions

This page provides detailed, step-by-step directions to the classrooms most frequently used by the Institute for Learning in Retirement.
The ILR serves a population that may be unfamiliar with the layout of Bergen Community College, so these directions are written clearly, slowly, and thoroughly.

Students are encouraged to review this page before the semester begins and to bring printed directions on the first day of class if helpful.
