All vehicles brought onto the campus must be registered with Public Safety (Campus Police), located in Kennedy Memorial Hall. Parking permits for graduate students may be obtained from Public Safety free of charge, with proof of course registration and vehicle registration.
Parking areas on campus are designated as student, employee, visitor, and reserved handicapped during certain hours to provide for special needs of some users and to distribute parking equitably throughout campus. Public Safety may impose a ban on parking in the event of severe snow conditions. During the ban, parking is allowed only in designated areas.
Parking in designated areas is on a “first-come – first-served” basis. Unless otherwise specified, all walkways and roadways are considered to be fire lanes. Parking in a fire lane or at a fire chain will result in a fine and may necessitate towing at the owner’s expense. Unauthorized parking in a designated handicapped area results in a fine and may result in towing. The University reserves the right to revoke the privilege of operating a motor vehicle on the campus from any students who fails to abide by these and/or other parking regulations.
Parking tickets can be appealed at the Public Safety within seven days of the violation. Appeals received after this time period will not be accepted. Parking ticket fines are to be paid at the Cashier’s Office located in the lower level of Alumni Hall. Students who receive 10 tickets in one academic year will lose their privilege to have and operate a car on campus for at least one full semester. Failure to pay fines may result in loss of driving and parking privileges on campus. Fines must be paid prior to eligibility for degree conferral.
