I was wondering if any one knows anything about parking and regulation on motorcycles at elmhurst like do i need a separate parking permit and can i park in a regular parking spot? If you could help that would be great.

commuting

Another bad thing about commuting is the weather. When you are a commuter you need to be awhere of the weather because weather determines how long it will take you to get to school. Because of traffic and how your car will drive in it. So you will have to leave eariler and wake up eariler and it blows

Do Residents Work as Much as Communters?

This could be a completely false observation- so please let me know if it is- but I have noticed that a majority of residents do not work. On the other hand, the majority of commuters appear to be working when they are not at school. If this observation is true, then how do residents afford to eat and pay for their dorms? I understand that parents should help out, but there are some people that rely on their parents too much. Please let me know what you think.

Weather

In the recent months ahead, there are going to be tons of t-storms. We just had one today. I know for me that there are problems of predicting the right time to leave my house to get to class on time. I was wondering if anyone else had a problem with getting to class on time because of the weather?

Cafeteria

I enjoy the food that is sold at Elmhurst College but it seems like there is not as much to choose from anymore. What ever happened to pizza and French fries? I think that the school should have more of a variety. They need to bring back the basics. After awhile, the same food gets boring. I would not complain because there are other food places that are close to school except no one ever wants to leave to get food because then you loose your parking spot.

Reckless Drivers

One day, as I was driving endlessly around the parking lot, I witnessed something that I probably should not have. An ignorant, impatient person decided to pull into a parking spot that was way to small for his car. He did not seem to care because he pulled into that spot anyway and ended up scratching the entire side of the car next to him. He parked carelessly and walked to class. This incidence made me think- someone could do that to my car and just walk away. About a month later, I walked out to my car and the person that was parked in front of me parked with their car touching mine. It was parked so much on my car that when I backed out, I could see their car drop. People really need to be careful!!!

Becoming an Issue

I have recently heard from a students' talking about how the parking issue is going to the administrative board. Now if this was not an issue, why would the board of administration become involved?
