Carlos Garcia

The fall semester is underway and the lack of parking space has many students wondering how the University is handling the situation. Bobcat Update's Carlos Garcia has more.

Students are returning to school this week, and some of them have reason to be frustrated because they can't find parking spaces. For example, the lot off Sessom across the street from the tennis complex is usually full. Commuters often resort to stalking for a spot and will sometimes wait for up to 30 minutes to get one. As the clock ticks, anxiety mounts out of fear of being late to class.

Some students have solved the problem by arriving on campus early. Others know they can find parking, but they have to be willing to walk.
Girl SOT (:10) …I like walking to class because it's healthy…
Bridge: Whether the glass is half empty or full is left to the disposition of each student, but there was a general consensus among both camps that the University ought to address the problem. 
GirlSOT (:10) ….The university needs to do a better job at knowing the needs of students…
GuySOT (:10) ….The university should have more spaces available, I always drive by many reserved spots that are empty….
In the meantime, some students are resorting to parking illegally as a last ditch effort to make it to class on time. They know if they're caught they'll likely receive a fine.
For Bobcat Update, I'm Carlos Garcia.
