The Academic Senate has recently formed a panel to discuss possible solutions for the resulting problems of the parking congestion.
Academic Senate President Peter Haslund said panel members will look for a long-term plan as well as a solution that will alleviate problems now.
“We are forming a sub-committee of the Academic Senate, which we prefer to call a ‘working group,’ to deal with the parking issues,” he said. “Our biggest concern is that if students can’t find parking, they can’t get to class and we can’t teach them.”
Haslund explained that this will be a fairly short-lived committee because the main purpose is really only to brainstorm ideas.He said the group consists of open minded people who will hopefully think of solutions no one has thought of yet.
“The ultimate goal is to find a solution without having to build an expensive parking structure, so we are exploring new avenues and thinking outside the box,”
