The parking committee would like to thank the students who have cooperated with the parking regulations this year. The situation has improved but can still be better. Observing the parking regulations is important because it is not fair to other students and members of the community for certain students to monopolize the parking on front campus. The parking committee is sympathetic to student needs and realizes that it is vital, at times, to park on front campus. That is why the rules are so im portant. Parking on front campus should be an asset to everyone instead of a problem. Please review the rule.s in the student handbook. A few reminders follow: 1- Sisters, South, Clewell and Bitting park in FAC. 2- Gramley, Babcock, and Strong park at the Tennis Courts. 3- No parking on front campus for an extended period of time. 4- No parking on front campus on Sunday mornings. 5- No parking in front of residents’ homes or on Blum and Walnut Streets. 6- No parking in Faculty, Church or Handicapped places. Two warnings will be issued for the first two in fractions and then each case will be reviewed individually. Punishments will range from fines to Interdorm penalties. Thanks again to those who are helping to improve the situation.
