Freshmen are prohibited from
ing their vehicles on the main
us as a result of a change in
Icy made over the summer,
is new regulation states that
nts with less than 30 credit
sare restricted to parking their
les in lots 56, 61, and 63. The-
>ts are located across Wellborn
on the west side of campus,
ng violators will be fined $5
lay.
In previous years, sophomores
| freshmen received green per-
juniors and seniors received
d permits, and day students re-
tived blue permits. Sophomores
id freshman day students could
itain blue permits last year, allow-
g them to park on the main cam-
us
Texas A&M has always used the
system to hold certain restric-
in regard to the traffic and
parking regulations,” said Police
Chief Russ McDonald. “The
sophomores, now considered ‘up
perclassmen’, are permitted to park
on campus this year mainly because
of the parking spaces that are availa
ble.”
Female students living in resi
dence halls are allowed to park their
cars on campus and they receive
gray permits. Female off-campus
freshmen receive green permits re
quiring them to park across the
tracks.
McDonald says this is because the
police do not patrol the parking lots
across the railroad tracks, so it is not
for convenience but for security and
safety precautions that the law
applies to these students.
McDonald said that the police did
not issue tickets the first week of
school except to those students who
parked in the reserved staff parking
lots. These lots are for authorized
vehicles and reserved staff who hold
yellow permits.
McDonald said that there are
parking spaces available to any stu
dent with any color permit on the
other side of the railroad tracks. He
said 1,054 spaces are available in lot
56, 981 in lot 61, 801 in lot 63, and 81
in lot 64 for a total of 2,917 parking
spaces.
Parking regulations vary in sev
eral on-campus lots during the
weekends, McDonald said.
Parking by the golf course on
weekends is prohibited because that
is the busiest time for golfers,
McDonald added.
In addition, all vehicles must be
removed from parking lots 48, 56,
60, 62, and 63 by 10 a. m. on days of
football games. These lots are lo
cated by Kyle Field and Olsen
Field.
Lot 63 next to Olsen Field also
must be vacated by 11 a.m. on days
of home baseball games.
