Graduated from the University of Akron in 2003. Population 25,000, almost all are commuters but like 3,000 who live on campus
# Where do you park? When I was in college Id park as close as I could to the building I had all my classes in. The first two years I left my car at the dorm and walked to all of them, then I started to drive to the building all my classes were in
# How far away is it? that lot, if you can get in it (only has like 20 spots) it is next to the building, if not I have to go to the parking deck and try to find one, but I hate the deck, lots of wrecks there and people hit cars all the time and leave the scene.
# How much do you pay for parking? lord parking started out as i think it was 40 a semester when I came to college in 98, by 2003 when I graduated it was like 85 i think a semester and good parkign was hard to come by, it was so outrageous to pay for a pass, Id not get one, park in the spot and risk getting a $5 ticket. In my last semester, I got 3 tickets so I spent 15 to park where everyone else parked and they paid the stupid 85 for the pass.
# Is parking an issue at your school? HELL YEAH!!!! They are building decks all over, but they buidl them in places that are so far from campus or from buildings and then you have to walk all over the stinking place just to park. It takes like 30 mins some days to find a spot and people drive around and around looking for good ones, noone wants to park in the deck far from campus.
