Worries about parking at Lindsey Wilson

Editor's note: While we think the writer raises a valid point, our hope is that Lindsey Wilson will find a modern way to need fewer parking lots, and have a smaller area of the campus paved. We hope the solution is with more walking, cycling, ride sharing, public transportation, and legalized (a simple step) golf cart access. Maybe even shuttle golf carts from unused, already overbuilt parking areas Downtown. What is becoming a stunning hilltop urban campus, and a leader in ecology, and solving health problems while dramatically raising the educational level and economic well being of Columbia/Adair County. -EW

It's great we are getting new nice buildings at Lindsey Wilson it has grown so much in the past years which is great.

But what about parking all these building especially residence halls has taken the parking lots we have a lot of kids that attend there who choose to drive and live at home.

When they get there, there is no place to park.



If you go up there as a visitor during school hours, there is no place to park even for handicap. This is a major problem for our students. Yes it great the college is growing But they have to have somewhere to park. When college starts go up take a ride for yourself at the end of August see for yourself.

These kids are bettering themselves; something needs to be done about parking.

Plus if they park in a spot there not suppose to they get a big ticket for it hey these are kids trying to go to school not a place of employment wherethey get weekly paychecks.

Parents have to pay for those tickets college, books, food, living expense is enough for them they don't need to pay for a stupid ticket going to college from parking in the wrong place.
