There's a new car parking setup
on the campus this fall, which has
two main parts to it:
(1) There are now 1,400 park
ing stalls on campus streets and
other trafficways, and in the of
ficial parking lots adjacent to the
campus. This is 50 percent more
than last year. For location of the
parking lots see the map in this
issue of the Daily Nebraskan,
Page 2.
(2) If you want to park your
car in any of these stalls you
have to get an official university
parking permit.
Here's how you get the permit.
If your Lincoln residence is more
than eight blocks from the out
side perimeter of the campus
you're eligible. The campus, in
this case, is the area bounded by
Tenth street on the west and
Fourteenth street on the east,
Avery Avenue on the north and
It street on the south. If you are
physically handicapped your place
of residence probably will not be
a factor.
If you are eligible you do three
things:
(1) Get your car registration
permit and your student identifi
cation card.
(2) Bring them to the Student
Union ballroom, any hour of the
day, Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday, (Sept. 16-18), and present
them to the Student Council com
mittee. If your application is
bonafide, 'they'll issue you an ap
plication blank.
(3) Take the approved applica
tion blank to the special booth
operated by the campus police on
the west end of the Library Mall
(that's the area in which tempo
rary buildings are located).
They'll exchange your application
blank for an official windshield
sticker permit, on any of these
days.
That's all you have to do. The
sticker entitles you to park your
car anywhere within the campus
area (as defined earlier in this
story) or in any of the university
operated parking areas.
There are no reserved spaces
this fall for either faculty or stu
dents. It's a case of first come,
first served.
What happens if you don't get
an official parking permit Thurs
day, Friday or Saturday, or you
can't qualify for one?
Nothing the first week from
Sept. 20 to Sept. 26. During this
period campus police will issue
warning cards only. Starting Sept.
27 parking violation tickets will
be issued. Students, owners, or
operators of tagged cars must ap
pear before a Student Council op
erated "court" which will assess
fines comparable to those levied
in Lincoln's municipal traffic
court. The money collected wnl
go into a scholarship fund.
Under provision of the Board
of Regents parking regulations
approved last summer, students
who repeatedly violate the park
ing regulations may be suspend
ed, or expelled, from the univer
sity. Faculty members, and other
university employes, who violate
the regulations will be given
regular Lincoln police traffic vio
lation tickets and must appear in
the city's municipal court to pay
their fines. It's the same for Lin
. coin residents who park on the
campus without a permit.
The new regulations were for
mulated this summer by a student-faculty-administration
com
mittee. ' ; (Editoi's Note: This is the first
of two articles explaining the new
parking setup. Better read both
of them. It may save you (1) a
trip to "court," and (2) some
dough.).

Two Lincoln freshmen, Jackie Sorenson and Bob Seacrest, a,re shown touring the university campus. Forming a
background is the main entrance to Memorial Stadium where mighty Cornhusker teams have added more than their
share to gridiron legend during the past quarter-century. The class of '52 which these students represent is expected
to speed the pulse of university life and bring new school spirit to the campus. With this object in mind, the university
heartily welcomes the new blood, the first class since the end of the war in which recent high school graduates out
number returning and entering veteran students. Early reports" from the registrar estimate freshmen enrollment at
well over 2,000.
