In conjunction with the pro-
posed construction of a new
parking lot west of the biology
building this summer, the Uni-
versity has announced several
new parking regulations which
will be applicable to off-campus
students. .
The most significant change
will be the establishment of a
$5.00 per year parking fee to be
paid by off-campus students.
The revenue will be used to cov-
er the cost of constructing and
maintaining parking facilities
for these students
The use of the old Graduate
and Special Parking Privilege
parking stickers will be dis-
continued. All off-campus stu-
dents, regardless of classifica-
tion, will be required to pay
this fee unless payment is
waived by the Dean of Stu-
dents.
a. The payment of this fee
entitles the student to a green
Commuting Student sticker for
each car he drives on the cam-
pus. This sticker permits the
student to park in the Ham-
man Hall Lot and in a new 350-
car lot to be constructed across
the street from the Biology and
Geology Building.
The new lot will be reserved
for commuting students only.
Women students with a Com-
muting Student sticker may.
park in the Women's College
lots if they so desire.
b. Those off-campus students
who do not own or operate
automobiles may apply to the
Dean of Students for a waiver
of the fee. Those who do operate
automobiles but do not wish to
pay the fee may have payment
waived by: 1) registering for
parking in the Stadium Lot, and
2) agreeing that they will not
park on! the streets adjacent to
the University in lieu of park-
ing on the Stadium Lot.
The waiver will be cancelled
if the student does park on the
streets, and there will be an
additional penalty fee.
c. No student living on cam-
pus may obtain a Commuting
Student sticker. Resident stu-
dents are considered to have
paid the equivalent of a parking
fee in their room and board
payment, and there is no special
fee assessed on them for park-
ing in their authorized lots. -
