    Parking at any college is nuts for the 1st couple of weeks because even the online classes meet up in person then. Lightrail/bus, bicycle or carpool instead. Scooter/motorcycle parking is convenient.

    Take early morning class's (like 7:30 start times!), that way you get the best spot for the day!

    Get a friend or family member to drop you off the first week or be prepared to spend 45 minutes parking.

    Looks like the new parking structure is having its grand opening today. There's a ribbon across the entrance and lots of "dignitaries" waiting around.

    If you want to park on campus during the first month of the semester, get there 2 hrs before your class. Not kidding.

    To the people who just sit in the rows waiting for a spot, you accomplish nothing, you are in the way and cars have to go around you.
