We have made some changes to the parking areas for the spring term that will mostly affect graduate students and Resident East students.

Many of the students in Hobson, Sutton and Macy will be affected. Resident East parking will be available in the lot east of Lewis, along Macy and the back of HMS. The gravel area is also available for Resident East parking.

Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 13, the parking spaces south of the physical therapy entrance will now be designated “Graduate Parking.” These are the spots along the Lewis/Hadlock row that were previously Resident East. Also, the lot east of Lewis is still a shared “Graduate/Resident East” lot.

The North Street parking lot has also been divided a bit and will have some shared “Graduate/Resident East” parking.

The parking map has been updated to show the changes and can be viewed online.
