The hassle about parking/ cost

Well, for myself I have an advantage compared to many college students.  Luckily, my friend lives two or three blocks away from Stanislaus and that she allows me to park at her house for free.  That will save me $1,456 plus $546 if I parked there during the summer.  From what I have seen walking to the campus, cars are parked everywhere and that multiple cars are driving around the parking lot looking for a place to park.  Other students have told me that they have been late to class, just trying to find a parking space for fifth teen minutes.  For other students who try to save money and park on the side of Stanislaus, they have to show up early between six and six thirty am.  It seems that Stanislaus needs to make another parking lot.  I would suggest building the parking lot by the round about, the area that is covered in dirt.  Unless that land of dirt is going to be used for something else at Stanislaus.  With all the money that Stanislaus collects from students buying the permits each semester, I'm pretty sure some of it can used to create another parking lot.  If the university couldn't even do that, then they can raise the price so that they could create another parking lot.   Since there is no room to park at Stanislaus, it leads college students to park in front of someone's house and walk to there classroom.  Which may lead Stanislaus to lose money in the process if there is no room to park over there, it will also lead students to stop buying permits.  Creating this new parking lot may lead the university to receive thousands of dollars or hundred of thousands after so many years.

  1. You lucked out with the parking! I had to fork over the money for the parking pass because I didn't wanna have to patrol for parking every day when I show up, but I agree there needs to be an additional parking area as it gets overly crowded during the afternoon.

  2. Even though I live at the dorms, I still had to pay the same amount for a parking pass. Its very expensive and it is only for one semester. That's crazy!
