Show A Little Way the Spot By Lila Bosch If any of you drive to the college then Im I'm sure you all know of the frustration suffered in trying to find a parking space Many of us have had to park out in the gravel pits or 5 miles down the road Well dad now we can say we used to walk 10 miles to classes everyday too Hopefully Hopefully Hopefully Hope Hope- fully the situation will get better In talking with Joe Johnson he mentioned that plans are being considered by the building board to build an additional parking stalls If approved the areas north of the Technology Building and west of the College Center will be completed by summer These plans are at the top of the list for approval by the building board and it looks like its it's going to pass A couple of ideas that may help eliminate some of the parking congestion would be to form carpools or to ride the bus If you need a ride to campus or would like to form a carpool check the bulletin board that's next to the game room There are information information information tion cards that you can fill out listing where and when you need needa a ride Also you can buy bus passes at the College Center offices There are a few things that you may not be aware of that should be made clear For example the Highway Patrol can issue parking parking parking park park- ing tickets for being illegally parked By being illegally parked means if you are blocking a driveway or parked in a fire lane Also campus police can issue either a ticket that you pay to a Justice of the Peace or one that you pay to the college This rule applies to both students and faculty To avoid receiving a parking ticket there are a few important things to remember Do not park in the fire lanes or block any driveways Also do not park in any areas marked handicapped handicapped handicapped handicap ped or staff only unless you have the proper sticker enabling you to legally park there The parking is bad enough without having to pay for a ticket along with it So try to remember where and where not to park on campus Its It's getting kind of hard not to believe that the world isn't just a great big parking lot |
