Students who have or want reserved
parking spaces on campus
will feel the pinch of a 100 percent
increase beginning this spring, a
university official said.
Blossom Street garage prices
will increase from $50 to $100,
ind the other reserved areas will
increase from $60 to $120 beginling
January, said Bill Baker, director
of Parking and Vehicle Registration
Services.
The other areas affected are the
3endleton Street and Computer
services garage, a portion of the
VfcMaster lot, the surface lot at
senate and Pickens streets, the
denderson Street lot and 12 reierved
spaces at NADA
ipartments.

by the Office of Business
ind Finance* because of higher
:osts incurred by an increase in
ecurity in the garages and because
he prices have not increased since
978, Baker said.
"We're finding out more and
nore every day how costly these
hings are to get security guards
nd uniforms," he said.
The increase is also related to a
