Lost in the Halls - The First Day Dilemma!

Imagine - You are a brand-new student on their first day of school at BCIT.  The trouble is, you have lost your admittance letter that contains the details about your new student orientation.  If you don't show up, you could be removed from your program!  You better act quickly to find that letter – you have 45 minutes to solve the puzzles and find your timetable so you can make it to your orientation.  Good luck!
