Congratulations to Lancer Nation for reaching the end of semester two. As we approach finals starting Thursday, June 12, it is important to remember that students should not be parking in the Main Lot without a parking pass due to graduation practice taking place in the gym.

As voiced in Robert Callahan’s email, “only students with an orange parking pass for Main Lot” are allowed to park in that location. Administration and staff will be checking the parking lot tomorrow before SEAs and during transition periods, so students must follow the protocol. There will also be an admin at the entrance of the Main Lot, only allowing cars with passes to enter the lot.
