OT placards, was Re: ideas/?

[Guest guest]

Actually, I already do that - I have to buy a student parking permit,

but that plus the placard is enough to avoid getting towed or

ticketed. Parking is so bad at my school - supposedly, it is over

half commuters now (around 10,000 students total), and there are over

400 faculty (not counting admin and support). The campus is right in

the middle of the city, and there are two other colleges in the

immediate area.

The only time I got a ticket when I was displaying my placard was

when I parked in a spot for " manager of the dorm " . I think I just

paid it ($40) instead of getting entrenched in the Newark justice

system.

Thanks,
