Student Quotes “There is not enough accessible parking for
students. I shouldn't have to park in Z Lot for my class in Hill.”
“Parking is very far from academic buildings. Also, there are hardly enough spots for those that live off campus and must drive to campus.”
“There are too many blue parking lots that aren't being filled by professors and should be made available to either red or blue parking passes.”

Student Quotes“There’s not enough red parking spots/lots, and
many of them are too far away from academic buildings.”
“I understand that IC is probably doing their best to accommodate everyone, but the parking situations are a bit ridiculous. We are forced to pay for parking permits but yet have the worst parking areas (red lot) being that the parking spots are so far from academic buildings.”
“Having a car is supposed to make life easier on campus but it isn’t easier if we can’t park anywhere near our academic buildings.”
