It will have to, or more parking will have to be built. I mean it took replacing the tad pad to finally get a parking deck on campus.

Hell let the freshman park in the current park and rides and let them shuttle out to their cars if they need to use it. Its not like you need your car 24/7 while you are staying the middle of everything on campus. Those residential spots would be free up so much parking for people who have to drive everyday.

if I'd known then what I know now I would have saved myself a lot of gas money, parking ticket fees, and wasted time trying to find a parking spot by simply riding my bike to class.

Some things just never change and it's a whole lot worse now than when I was bumpin around Oxford.

Haha now you have to buy a parking permit for bikes. It's $1.00 but still. I got a parking pass today.

Finally was able to process an order for a parking pass online. They need to fix that shite before next year. It was absolutely miserable.

Yeah, it was a cluster frick. They basically told everyone who wants a commuter tag to log on at the same time and sign up.

Had they gone about it in a way similar to registration windows, it would have been much easier for everyone.

Parking services gave me a ticket for parking illegally during the Vanderbilt game in 2012 when everybody could still park on the sidewalks and under trees.

When I asked why they gave me a ticket they stated I wasn't parked in a commuter spot. When I told them I had already graduated from college and I wasn't even a student anymore they told me it doesn't matter you still have a commuter parking sticker.

I took my complaint all the way to the Lyceum and they wouldn't reverse it. frick PARKING SERVICES

Part of me is pissed but the other part is smiling because I had a few friends who were smug about riding their bikes to school and not having to worry about parking.

Last fall i had to pick some stuff up at Bryant and i asked that lady in the little booth on university by the grove if i could go in the circle for 5 min. She told me i needed a visitors pass or some shite but said i could go in but next time get a pass. A week later i get a email saying that i illegally drove into the circle and i refused to follow directions. I cant remember the price of the ticket but it was way higher than normal. So i called and raised hell but it was her word over mine. So they can choke on a dick for all i care.

so what would they have done if you'd have told them to go pump themselves with their ticket? You're not paying it.

I'd have wiped my arse with it and stuck it to their patrol car window.
