With the February Reading Week fast approaching, we would like to remind all permit holders of the following:

  • Although campus activity may be reduced, all permit holders are still required to park in their designated parking locations.
  • If you will be away during the break and hold a permit for an exterior lot, please ensure your vehicle is moved to a garage, as overnight parking is not permitted in exterior lots during the winter months. Contact the Parking Office and we will assist you in arranging a suitable garage space for the week.
