Cheaper Parking for Students at The University of Akron
Students at The University of Akron are paying absurd amounts for parking. The cost doesn't even make logical sense. Parking for students over the entire summer is $225. Parking for students each semester is also $225. Why are we paying the same amount when summer is only 2 months and each semester is 5 months?! We are paying for months of parking that doesn't even exist. $225 for a semester in parking is insane when we are already paying for housing, classes, textbooks, and more. Also parking at surrounding colleges such as Kent State is $116 per semester. Akron needs to step up its game and support its students. Parking needs to be lowered to about $100 per semester at most. Students at The University of Akron are signing this petition to support this argument and defend their rights as students that make up this university.
Why is this important?
It is important to sign this petition to defend your rights as a student. The amount we are paying for parking is not financially logical. We are being robbed of our money. Kent State only needs to pay $116 per semester. We pay TWICE the amount for parking at the University we attend. If the authorities aren’t going to help us, then we need to do it ourselves. Please sign this petition and it will be given to the president of The University of Akron and parking services.
How it will be delivered
We are going to deliver this petition to The University of Akron president and parking services.
