With the spring semester now in full swing, many students are learning the hard way that getting to class takes longer than expected. Ila Mar has the story.
 
Students who have vehicles soon discover that finding a parking space is like finding a needle in a haystack. It can be upsetting.
SB Chris Vasquez: "It took me over an hour to find parking! It was really messed up."
School officials have attempted to improve parking, but some students say a lot more needs to be done.
SB: "The school has been working on providing more paid parking, but really we need more free parking for commuters. We just don't have enough of those."More buses have been added, which means fewer students have to drive to campus. However, some students believe the bus system is also lacking.
SB: "There needs to be more buses picking up students from commuter lots."
School officials say they hope to fix the parking situation soon. If students have any suggestions, they can share their ideas at the university's weekly board meeting at the L-B-J ballroom on Thursday nights at 7 o'clock. For Bobcat Update, I'm Ila Mar.
