The Social Work building is not a scent-free space – however, the UW SSW QT Group asks that folks not wear fragrances or heavily fragranced products to events.
The SW Building has a total of five floors (sub-basement, basement, first, second, third). Two elevators go from the sub-basement to the 2nd floor. One elevator (the blue, or southernmost elevator) goes from the basement to the third floor. Both the basement (marked G in elevators) and 1st floor have access to the outdoors — the basement has a southern exit and the 1st floor has a northern exit.
There are gendered bathrooms on all floors of the SW Building, near the center of the building. On the 2nd floor by the mailroom, there is a multi-stall all-gender restroom that has urinals, stalls, and a locking main door (you are able to lock the main door to the all-gender restroom once you are inside).
The QT Group strives to make our events as accessible as possible — please email/message us if there are any additional access needs to be met.
