    GENERAL INFORMATION<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    The operation of a vehicle on the ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ campus is a privilege granted by the University. The purchase of a ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ parking permit does not guarantee the registrant a parking space, nor does it imply the
    \nUniversity assumes responsibility for that vehicle or its contents.<\/p>\n

    Parking is permitted only in designated parking areas or zones. Vehicles are prohibited from parking on any campus lawn at any time unless authorized to do so by the University. Vehicles parked on any campus grounds area, on sidewalks, in freight zones, in no parking zones, in fire lanes, in traffic lanes, in pedestrian crosswalks, in fire hydrant zones, too close to intersections, in front of barricades, in handicapped spaces, in restricted areas, unless authorized, are in violation of ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ parking regulations and are subject to being towed at the owner\u2019s expense.<\/p>\n

    During any semester or session, faculty, staff and students must park only in zones which the official University parking permit entitles them to use. All handicapped persons requiring special parking should contact the Office ofParking Services. Permits on vehicles that will no longer be used on campus (i.e. traded in, sold, totaled, etc.) must be returned in any condition in order to receive a replacement permit for another vehicle at no charge. Parking Services also will accept official paperwork from the insurance company stating that the specific vehicle which had the permit registered to it has been totaled or official paperwork from a dealership or notary showing proof of trade-in or sale. There is no cost to exchange a permit, but there will be no refund of purchase price in lieu of exchange.<\/p>\n

    The University reserves the right to tow away and impound a vehicle at the owner\u2019s expense if the vehicle is parked in any place creating a potentially hazardous condition, is parked in a handicapped space without authorization, is abandoned or in any unauthorized area, is in violation of this Code or is parked on campus after parking privileges have been suspended.
    \nUniversity Police enforces traffic and parking regulations established by the University, city, and state. University Police Officers are duly commissioned under the laws of the state of Louisiana, city of Thibodaux and the University. These officers are authorized to make arrests and issue citations for all types of traffic and parking violations.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    VEHICLE REGISTRATION<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Any vehicle parked on campus regularly, occasionally or temporarily during any semester or summer session is required to have a current ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ parking permit properly displayed. Permits may be obtained at the Office of Parking Services upon completion of the application and presentation of vehicle registration. It is your responsibility to provide all items requested in order to receive a parking permit. Students attending night classes, on-line classes, and those not regularly on campus must still purchase and properly display a current permit while on campus.<\/li>\n
    2. Persons visiting the University are exempt from purchasing a University parking permit but must obtain a visitor\u2019s permit (See Visitor Parking). Registered students and faculty\/staff are not allowed visitor parking at any time.<\/li>\n
    3. Anyone who operates a vehicle on campus and is classified as an employee of the University or student (including students enrolled in evening and off campus classes) must register that vehicle. Any vehicle operated on campus on a regular or occasional basis for the convenience of an employee of the University or student must be registered. Temporary parking permits are available to students whose vehicle with a parking permit is not available. Each student is allowed two (2) free temporary parking permits per semester as long as the student has previously purchased a parking permit for that academic year. Any student receiving a temporary parking permit who has not purchased a permit yet will be charged the full price of a permit.<\/li>\n
    4. A vehicle is not registered until it has the current permit properly affixed to the vehicle.<\/li>\n
    5. Vehicle registration is required prior to the first day of class of any semester. Parking citations are issued on the first day of classes of any semester.<\/li>\n
    6. Parking permits can be obtained during and after class registration at the Office of Parking Services. On-line registration is available for a limited time during the summer for the upcoming Fall semester. On-line registration is not available for Spring parking permits. If you do not register your vehicle on-line (complete an application) you must pick up your permit in person at University Police. The fee for a parking permit is not added to your account unless an application for a permit is submitted.<\/li>\n
    7. The price paid for the parking permit will be refunded only to a student who returns the parking permit unused and undamaged in the semester in which the permit was purchased. If a parking permit has been used, the price paid for the permit will be refunded only if the student withdraws from the University prior to the first day of classes of the semester which the permit was purchased. The student must still return the permit to the Office of Parking Services. Students who pay for a permit but have not received a permit may request a replacement permit prior to the 14th class day. Students who receive a permit by mail through on-line registration and do not activate and attend classes will be indebted to the university until the unused, unopened permit is returned.<\/li>\n
    8. A student may not register a vehicle belonging to another student. Parking permits will not be released to ANYONE other than the student registered at ÐÓ°É´«Ã½<\/li>\n
    9. A faculty or staff member may not register and obtain a faculty\/staff permit for a vehicle that will be operated by a student on campus. Each student, faculty or staff member must purchase a permit for the vehicle he\/she will park on campus.<\/li>\n
    10. The registrant will be responsible for all parking citations issued to his\/her permit or vehicle, even if someone other than the registrant was operating the vehicle.<\/li>\n
    11. Students, faculty and staff are responsible at all times for their own acts constituting illegal parking, whether the acts are committed in their own vehicles or in vehicles licensed to another.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
