It's ironic, however, that the largest display of racial tension on this campus occurred around the time of that speech. The administration's understanding of our campus is as bad now as it was then.
Students scramble to find parking in substandard lots every morning.
Parking Services is hard at work to meet demands with renovation and construction of parking areas, but it's frustrating to drive past an empty lot that's closed with no construction in site. If students are to patiently accept the situation, The University should at least explain the reasons for such poor planning. That's just plain sneaky. This decision process took several years, but took students by surprise. I even asked several administrators why this policy was implemented.
