Vehicle Registration

Persons who use or park vehicles on campus are subject to the following regulations:

All faculty, staff, and students (full-time or part-time), who operate a vehicle on College property, regularly or occasionally, are required to obtain a parking decal. Vehicles may be registered online during the summer, during class registration, at the Safety and Security Office, Bartlett Hall 116, and at the Office of Student Affairs, Bartlett Hall 327, between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Registration of all vehicles parked on campus is required, but registration is no guarantee of a convenient parking space near the place where one works, resides, or attends classes. The responsibility of finding a legal parking space rests with the vehicle operator and lack of a parking space is not a valid excuse for violation of any parking regulations.
Vehicles parked on campus are required to be in an operable condition with valid/current vehicle registration displayed. Vehicles which are not in an operable condition and/or have expired vehicle registration may be removed from campus by towing. Please see the section below titled “General Information” for additional data on this topic.
Students must obtain a parking decal for each academic year or portion thereof.
Parking decals for faculty and staff may be obtained at the time of employment or any time during the academic year.
A parking decal must be displayed on the vehicle no later than the first day of classes of the new semester.
The parking decal must be completely attached and displayed on the outside of the rear window in the lower left-hand corner (driver’s side) of the registered vehicle. The parking decal must be permanently affixed to the outside of the vehicle and not taped to the inside of the window. The parking decal must be able to be read from the rear of the vehicle.
Vehicles owned or driven by students may not be registered in the name of a faculty or staff member.
Should a parking decal become mutilated or obliterated in any way, a new decal must be obtained at the Safety and Security Office in Bartlett Hall 116. When the remnants of the old decal are presented, a replacement decal will be issued free of cost.
The parking decal holder is held responsible for all citations issued against the vehicle. Citations will not be excused on the plea that another person was driving the vehicle as parking violations are a strict liability matter and no proof of intent to violate is required.
The College assumes no financial responsibility for the theft of or damage to motor vehicles or their contents when the vehicle is parked or operated on campus or elsewhere.
A change of license plates must be reported to Campus Safety and Security within 48 hours of such change.
In the event of a new vehicle, students must bring the old parking decal and register the new vehicle with the Director of Safety and Security within 48 hours. There is no charge for the new decal.
