College Of Staten Island Parking is outrageous!

Many students who attend the College of Staten Island drive to school. The College of Staten Island requires that all students purchase a parking pass in order to park at the college. The current price for a parking pass is $82.00 annually. If you drive through CSI on any weekday afternoon you can see cars parked, double parked, parked on the lawn and even behind dumpsters.
The overcrowding of the CSI parking lot is something that drove me crazy as a student. Apparently, students still suffer from this agonizing situation even today. On Facebook, there is a group named CSI parking is horrible which is trying to get CSI to accommodate students with more parking spaces. The group claims that “In fall 2008 there were 13,092 students and there are only 2,950 parking spaces” of which some were restricted. Will they do anything about the overcrowding? What do you think?
csi is a ripoff .. They should have more parking spaces am sick and tired of PARKING ON THE ROCKS AND TAKIN A 15 MIN WALK TO CLASS THAT SUX! especially in the freezing cold they should make the parking free if the parking we pay for is only 2 spots. STOP ROBBING US CSI!
I agree, it is infuriating!
they probably dont care due to all the money they get from parking tickets.
What are they doing with all of the extra land surrounding the campus? I heard a rumor that they were turning them into dorms. Can’t they free up some of that space for parking? I know it’s probably a long walk from the buildings, but it’s better than driving around for 30 minutes hoping that a parking spot opens up.
