Do not fill this in! ===Central Campus=== The road network within the university is numbered, the main entrance to the university is the 2.5 km Road One which provides visibility to two rocky hills and a main core. The core is a [[Quadrangle (architecture)|quadrangle]] consisting of the university's public structures: [[Hezekiah Ademola Oluwafemi|Hezekiah Oluwasanmi]] Library, Secretariat, University Bookshop, Oduduwa Hall, and the Faculties of Arts, Education, Law, Administration and Social Sciences.<ref name="Olan"/> The first structure to be completed in January 1967 was three blocks of four floors, which became the Humanities building; these blocks have interconnected walkways to the other Faculties within the quad. Upon completion, these structures resembled inverted pyramids or huge boats but the design was chosen because of the country's humid [[tropical climate]] that way, each floor protects the one below.<ref name="ife" /><ref name="Olan" /> There are pedestrian walkways and pergolas around the campus, providing movement within offices around the quadrangle, and there are also piazzas, gardens and terraces. The quad is enclosed on each side by roads, beyond which are other faculty buildings. The inner road on the southern end (road two) or front of the main core provides access to the student union building. Along road two are the computer science building, and the faculties of pharmacy and health sciences. The outer road at the north-western end of the quad, (Road 5)<ref name="ife"/> provides access to the modern languages building and the African traditional-designed structure housing the African studies department, a museum and an exhibition hall.<ref name="Olan"/> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
