This is the parking lot I planned to park in 2 days a week while I attend my 1 hour & 20 minute class. It is located across from the building where my class is located. It used to have parking meters. Now the parking is reserved for visitors. It has looked like this everyday since class has begun. I will continue to walk a 1/2 mile to class & 1/2 mile back to my car everyday, but when I see this empty parking lot & I think about the time I’m wasting each day I get so mad. I have to block out 4 hours of my time 2 days a week just to attend 1 class. I haven’t followed the traditional route, so I guess it’s my fault, but I can’t help but wonder how many more people would further their education if schools were designed for adults who don’t have time to waste.
