IUPUI Parking

This is a topic that has been on my mind every semester at school and especially at the beginning of the semester because that is when it is the most chaotic. Currently there is around 34,000 students enrolled at IUPUI. That is not including the maintenance people and faculty. There is only 7,000 spots on the campus. That is not enough. I often find spots but they are not E which the majority of the people that get permits are. I am recommending they change the way parking is done. Why not take one of the parking garages and making it only for faculty and make the rest for everyone. Obviously the faculty would not be pleased with this because they would probably be forced to walk a further distance to class but we have to do it. And lets remember, faculty are paid to be there. Students are paying them so I really don't think they should get favoritism. This is my simple plan to fix the parking issue. Hopefully the new garage will help solve the problem. Well at least temporarily, until the school grows even more than it already has.
