DYK when you purchase a YELLOW parking permit, it allows you to park in any Yellow surface lot? Some lots fill up by 9:30 am so please go to the next available Yellow lot. Click the link to view the map to know where all the Yellow lots are located.

If you need to park on campus today, please do so in one of the garages if at all possible so our field staff (no snow day for them!) can get as much work as possible done to clear lots. Pull a ticket at the entry but exit gates should be up for you to leave free!
