It has become tradition for Sinclair Community College students to face parking headaches the first few weeks of classes.<\/p>\n
Liz Stefan, a first-year transfer student from Toledo, commuted from Kettering for her first day at Sinclair Community College. The 20-year-old Clinical Psychology major expected packed parking lots on Sept. 9.<\/p>\n
\u201cI figured it would be pretty busy, so I left my house an hour early,\u201d Stefan said.<\/p>\n
After following the trail of her fellow cars on the road, Stefan found a spot right away in Building 13\u2019s lot.<\/p>\n
Other students were not as lucky. Erin Jones, 30, said she had an awful time finding a spot on the first day of school.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had to circle the school three times and finally we got parking in the overflow area,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Jones, a business major, said she arrived two hours before her class started and still found it difficult to find a spot.<\/p>\n
First-year student Callie Kennard went straight to Welcome Stadium to park without giving the parking garage or overflow lot a try on the first day of class.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs long as the shuttles are on time and everything then I\u2019m totally fine with it,\u201d Kennard said.<\/p>\n
With the obvious rise in student enrollment for fall classes at Sinclair, parking seems to be a popular problem with the college\u2019s commuters. Some students expect the parking to ease up in the upcoming weeks, but 33-year-old student Chris Atkins feels that with the increase of students coming to Sinclair may cause a continuing problem with parking on campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith a 30 percent increase in enrollment, I think it might make a big difference whether parking is going to (open up) in the next two weeks like it usually does or not,\u201d Atkins said. \u201cIt makes you kind of wonder.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
