ok, quick vote from anyone who's had a class in CEBA - how often is it possible to make it to your car from class in 10-15 minutes, much less get off campus & a couple miles to work in that same time limit? i didn't think so.

yeah, a full 33% of the respondents thus far have been freshmen - the rest of us are probably older than you


It takes me approximately 5-7 minutes when riding my bicycle from Kirby Smith to CEBA. I will run you down, I have no reguard for others when riding my bike. In the words of a great song, "Move BITCH, GET OUT THE WAY, GET OUT THE WAY!!!"

There are special parking spots for people in this situation. These spots are blue and have a painting of some retard in a wheelchair. If you can't get hooked up with one of those, then you're just like the rest of us.

The bus comes like every 30 minutes. It's always on time for something. Take an earlier route. Or just keep complaining about the fact that the freshmen won't solve your problem for you.

3. While this doesn't pertain to me particularly, some people have to get to work a couple of miles away, probably 10-15 minutes after their class ends. Do you think they can get there quick enough without a car?
You make your own schedule at LSU. If you can't make it to your other stuff on time, it's your own fault.

I'm so old it's illegal for me to do college chicks.

4. Seems like there's a lot of freshmen bitching here. I can say I never saw this problem before this week. And the freshmen weren't here before. Therefore, it's the freshmen's fault.




1. What is your disability?
2. True
3. If it doesn't pertain to you, don't bring it up.
4. SCHOOL JUST STARTED. Give it a week or two

Possible solution: Leave earlier. I had 7:30 classes so parking was never a problem.

Parking sucks every Fall semester...this one's no different. You should learn to adapt. If you schedule early or night classes, you won't have these problems, plus it's not as hot, so walking to and fro will be more desirable.

Another option: put the bike in your car/truck and bike to and from the parking lot. That way, you'll get back to your car in a snap and it won't matter where you park.

Today I had a plan I got to campus at 7 am every thing was perfect. I parked as close to Johnston as I could in the lot, walked over. All things were great. Come 4:00 I am done for the today. My silly ass got lost walking around campus for an hour because I could not figure out were I parked. I finally find my car and spend another half hour just getting out off campus. It was awesome.

Yall don't know shit about bad parking:

When I went to Tech they sold something on the order of 9000 parking tags, there are only around 5000 spots. Now I understand that most of the time not everyone is going to be on campus at the same time, but at around 9:00-10:00 you could just about forget about parking anywhere. It was so bad that if you lived in one of the male dorms, and you left your parking lot for any reason, then you were HOSED. Everyone from off campus was driving in and they'd just take every last spot that was left in our lots. Imagine that, you drive somewhere to get breakfast that isn't radioactive, only to come back to your lot so that you can walk to class and then you can't even park where you live. Talk about shitty. Then when you get disgusted and park somewhere, anywhere, the ticket nazis wait for you to leave and then swoop down upon your car. Thank God it's all over with.
C.P.
