Students are experiencing problems finding parking on campus -- even in lots reserved for those who have parking permits. Bobcat Update's Emily Garcia has more.
Kassie Carrell commutes to Texas State from New Braunfels, and she purchased a purple parking permit so that she would be able to park on campus. She arrives at school an hour early each morning to scout out parking, only to find the spaces for which she has a permit have already been taken. She then resorts to two-hour parking on nearby streets to make it to class on time, which means she often risks receiving a ticket.

Carrell's main goal is to spread awareness of parking issues on campus. She wants the university and the City of San Marcos to be aware of the problem.

Other students have also found parking on campus to be difficult.

The City of San Marcos is considering adding parking meters on streets near the university, but some students say meters won't resolve the issue.
