i drove around for 30 inutes and put 16 miles on my truck trying to find a parking spot at UB today. My classes are pretty much scheduled at the same times as they were last year, and i remember last year parking was bad for like the first 2 or 3 days, then i NEVER had a problem finding a spot. well, we’re going on week 3 now, and this is rediculous! ---

going on my 5th year at ub i can offer you some suggestions: use the park and ride pay and park at a meter pay and park in the visitor lot go to school earlier park in the governors and jarvis lots and walk stop whining people have been compaining about UB’s parking for more years than i know of, its never gotten much better if at all. complaining is just a waste of time. ---

thats why I would spend the $140 a year to get a parking pass in the pay lot, It was worth it especially in the bad weather which was like 4 out of 5 days a week. ---

It seems like less people are skipping class this semester its weird. Stadium parking ftw, and just plan for the extra 5 minutes in walking. Most people could use a little more exercise anyways ---
