The University of Toledo, Toledo, OH

The University of Toledo is located in Toledo in northwest Ohio. Toledo sits on the Maumee River and Lake Erie, and is about 60 miles south of Detroit, MI.

University of Toledo has a large contained main campus.  A small river runs through the campus which has wide pathways and many open green areas with trees and grass. There is a trail which connects the University to the wonderful Toledo Metro Park System. We will use the beautiful and spacious Student Union, comfortable dorms (all air-conditioned), and a recently created classroom building for the 2018 FGC Gathering.
