Welcome. This year's parking rules and regulations are simpler and easier to understand. There are a limited amount of parking spaces available creating a need for organized parking. There are five basic rules to follow to avoid getting ticketed:
1) Don't park in a handicapped space if you don't have a handicapped placard or plate.
2) Parking in Fire lanes is prohibited. Fire Lanes are Tow Zones.
3) Park only in paved parking spaces that you are allowed to park in. There is absolutely no parking on the grass anywhere on campus.
4) Observe the 20 mph speed limit around the College Circle and 15 mph around the resident halls.
5) Don't park in No Parking Zones or on the diagonal lines.
95% of all tickets can be avoided by observing these rules.

Pink Placard
All vehicles parked on Campus need a current parking decal or a Visitor's Pass. Parking decals are available at the Security Office in Room 106 Peabody Hall. Visitor passes are available through both the RD/RAs and the Security Office. There is a $50 charge for decals and no charge for Visitor Passes. There is a requirement of providing the vehicle's registration though.
Decal Placement
The decal goes outside on the driver's side lower rear window. An example of the decal placement is above. A Visitor's Pass or Temporary Pass is hung from the rear view mirror facing the front of the vehicle.
