Parking Spaces

Student Parking
Students may park in any general parking space. They may also park in the Childcare Dropoff spaces for 10 minutes while dropping off children at the Childcare Center. Students may also park in Disabled/Handicapped Parking if they have a Disabled Parking Permit. 

General Parking
General Parking is any space not designated for faculty/staff, visitors, disabled/handicapped, or childcare drop off. Anyone with a valid Student, Faculty/Staff, or Visitor Permit may park in General Parking.    

Faculty and Staff Parking
Faculty and staff may park in any general parking space or any space designated for faculty and staff. Because there are not enough Faculty/Staff spaces available for every faculty and staff member, some faculty and staff will have to park in general parking. Staff and faculty may also park in the Childcare Dropoff Spaces for 10 minutes while dropping off children at the Childcare Center. They may also park in Disabled/Handicapped Parking if they have a Disabled Parking Permit.

Only faculty and staff with valid Faculty/Staff Permits may park in Faculty/Staff parking spaces. Student workers will not receive Faculty/Staff Permits, and they may not park in Faculty/Staff spaces.

Disabled/Handicapped Spaces
Special parking spaces are set aside to make the campus accessible for people with disabilities. Those spaces are marked with a blue, disability sign and/or paint. Only those with a Disability Parking Placard or license plate issued by the state of Ohio or another state may use those parking spaces. Disabled drivers who park in Disabled parking must also acquire and display an Edison Student or Faculty/Staff Permit.

If someone is temporarily disabled (e.g. as a result of an injury or surgery), they may obtain a Temporary Disability Parking Permit and park in Disability Parking Spaces. Those can be obtained from the Coordinator of Students with Special Needs/Disabilities, located in Student Services.

Visitor Spaces
Visitor spaces are set aside for the convenience and hospitality of occasional guests to the college. No permit is required for visitors to park in Visitor Parking on an occasional basis. However, recurring visitors will help Security maintain Visitor Spaces for them if they obtain a free, Visitor Permit.  

Visitor Spaces are monitored on a daily basis to make sure that they are only being used by visitors. Faculty, staff, and students who park in Visitor spaces will be ticketed and fined. 

If you attend classes, teach, or work on the main campus any day of the week, you are a member of the college community - not a visitor. That includes those days when you are not attending classes, teaching, or working.
