Accommodating Three Rivers: Case Study

There is little space in the parking, so I'll find a new parking or start coming to campus by bus so that I am not late

The researched proposal by Manasi Deshpande entitled “A Call to Improve Campus Accessibility for the Mobility Impaired,” is a reasonable argument, by this student, to improve campus accessibility at the University of Texas. I believe this student supports her argument very well by using interviews and campus observations. The proposal emphasizes the challenges students with mobility impairments encounter while attending classes on campus. Ms. Deshpande includes her personal experiences, as well as the experiences of fellow students as supporting evidence. Frankly, it was a bit shocking to learn this student changed her major due to accessibility issues. This fact alone should be a strong argument for change. The proposal details the benefits for improving campus accessibility not only for students, but also faculty. Moreover, Ms. Deshpande adds to her argument by including statistics regarding the

The right of entry to education resources is more than uncomplicated admission to a college. The right to use means to provide students with the devices they will need to be victorious in higher learning. Students with a recognized disability ought to be no omission. In reality, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, “ensure that all qualified persons have equal access to education regardless of the presence of any disability.” Objective replacement, class waivers, and revision of classroom management, testing and course necessities are all illustrations of behavior to supply access for the learner with a disability. A break down to the creation of such practical adjustments can place schools in breach of federal and state statutes, ensuing expensive fines.

Students living on main campus also face quite a nuisance. One commented that the parking lot at Henry hall is way too small to be considered reliable. There are probably about 50 parking spots and about 200 people who live there, resulting in having to circle around and search for other lots to park in. Finding a spot during weekends is noticeably easier than weekdays but only because that 's when a lot of students leave campus. Most places where students park when they go to class are a lot farther away than people want them to be. When students have to leave to be someplace on time, they usually have to add in the time that it 's going to take for them to get to their cars, which could be an extra 5-10 minutes.

Students are forced to park in other places on campus and some choose to disregard the signs posted for reserved parking. This is a bit risky because vehicles parking in violation of university regulations may be towed and impounded. For example, a freshman living in the valleys would get an F parking permit. The only places they can legally park with this are up the hill by the dorms, by the rec. center, and on high levels of a parking structure by the Bernhard Center, which is a popular place for students to eat out at, or buy things at the school store. Each parking lot is restricted to parking for a specific type of permit. Only vehicles displaying the same type of permit may park in that lot. During fall and winter semesters, residence hall lots with the designations A, C, F, K, and Z are restricted 24 hours a day for vehicles displaying the same type of permit. Many students choose to ignore these letters and just park there anyway, taking the risk of being ticketed or possibly toed. Campus police walks around especially at night and tickets every car parked illegally or calls in for a toe truck to help out. Seven different parking lots that may seem convenient when students are looking for a spot are restricted to employee parking 24 hours per day, leaving many students frustrated,

I hope to provide possible ways to improve the services provided to aid the parking issues that are found on the Florida International University. The issue of parking at Florida International University is the lack of being able to find parking at most given times. There are a lot of times where I have arrived at Florida International University and have spent over 20 minutes driving in circles trying to find a parking spot. And I am not the only one. Martina Bretous writes in one of her article posts. “It always starts out the same way: a race to the elevator entrance at the sight of anyone entering the garage followed by a head popping out of a lowered car window yelling ‘Are you leaving? (Bretous)’” I would use this excerpt to

One of the common ways to solve the problem is to build a parking lot, but they aren’t able to take into consideration the cost of the whole building and the matter on if the students will even guarantee a parking spot (John Peloza, Moritz Loock, James Cerruti, and Michael Muyot.). Since the parking lot is always full and students and staff are usually scrambling to find spots, it would be easier to create a system in which the user can be able to reserve spots in the parking lot. To be able to help students who are waste time looking for their car, it will have a car tracker. It mainly keeps track of where the car is parked with by the parking number and GPS to where the car is currently located in. Most students drive themselves to school; this makes students take up more space in the parking lot. To properly use the parking spaces there will be options to make carpooling more easily accessible. For instance, students who carpool could have closer parking. Another option is to give students the option to carpool with a person who is on the route to school.

More than half of the parking spaces that is close to the academic buildings is reserved for the Professors, however, the number of students in attendance surpasses the faculty. Students have had difficulty and anguish over this decision and think this system is no good. Two of the bad things are, for example, students have to park in the streets which is dangerous or interrupting classes already in progress when they arrive late. Sometimes students are on campus on time, but they have to spend ten to fifteen minutes looking for a suitable parking spot. Andy Gayle is a mechanical engineering student and argue passionately about the parking and think he is paying too much money to Camden County College to have this type of trouble. Therefore, he believes if you are not paying tuition you should not have special parking and that all parking should be on a first come first serve basis. Mr. Gayle concludes that the only designated parking should be for handicapped Professors and students. Even though, his statement is controversial I do agree to an

While this is a good thing to help bring people to the area all the while getting their education, these students aren’t exactly bringing more parking spots with them when they come to attend this school. Meaning more students every semester and less parking places as well. This can cause a variety of issues, and since we are attending this school and using this parking lot we elected to take advantage of its convenience and research the current issues that the overly full parking lot are beginning to cause for students and faculty alike.

This is an enforcer when it comes to the right parking but many students know and want to abide by the parking rules.

The University of North Texas is one of the largest universities in Texas. The university has around 35,000 students that commute or live on campus. As the result of this, the university doesn’t have enough parking spots for students and staff member due new construction of buildings for classes and Greek Life. This causes students and staff members to wander around through different parking lots to find a parking spots. There have been some cases were students looked for parking spot for 30 minute to 1 hour. This causes students to be late to classes and their jobs. At the University of North Texas, parking spot after 8:40 AM parking spot is hard to find. This means that people’s that have 11:00 AM class and commute, they have to leave their

It is ashame and many people go through this regularly. Students have to rush into class every morning and fill the spots available in the parking lot. Most of them wind up parking in awkward and technically illegal spots including on driving lanes, bus lanes, and no loading/parking zones. During the work day, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. the only place students can legally park around Delgado is in the lots around campus, all other areas are restricted!Something must be done about this! To solve the problem of towing vehicles of students or faculty, school administrators need to make a deal with the city of New Orleans to make rules for parking around the campus more lenient for students, or just not charge them for parking at all. Delgado is considered by some nothing more than a small community college whose parking spaces seem very equivalent to the students that go there, but over the last couple of years Delgado has grown and the number of students that

Many organizations which push for these changes and provide the support and resources for the disabled population do so out of a genuine desire of helping others rather than financial motives. They experiment and search for new, more efficient, more positive ways of achieving their goals. An education at UW-Stout strengthens this by bringing individuals into the careers already ready for innovation.

In order for students with disabilities to be working towards the same standards as their classmates, they need to receive appropriate accommodations and modifications. To identify how a student will access

A seemingly simple problem yet important to a travelers experience is parking. (FRENT, C. (2016))California, Pennsylvania offers parallel parking spots on the streets, which one pays with change to park there. This space is limited. There would be parking at a hotel, but unless there is a shuttle to drop you off and pick you up from where you want to go in California, or it was within walking distance, the need to extra parking spaces would be necessary. California University of Pennsylvania does offer a decent amount of parking, but unless the traveler is going to an event there, visiting the college, or has a parking pass, they would not be allowed to park in any of the lots, besides a pay by day lot, and would risk getting a $25 fine. Another concern with parking would be the locals and their annoyance by tourists taking up all of the
