Parking Tips from the Police

Brookdale's Police Department is offering the following message for students and staff. They'd like the information title to be "Parking Lot #1- Your Default Lot." But since this is a blog, we don't go for fancy titles.

The Police also offer this teaser line: "Parking Lots Closed, No Parking Spaces, Long Lines of Cars?"

According to the Police, they offer the following solution to parking problems at Lincroft:

GO TO PARKING LOT #1. It’s a short ride down Museum Drive past Larrison Hall (LAH). We all know that parking is at a premium during the first weeks of school. This changes as the semester passes but there are still several peak time periods all year (after 10:00AM and then after 1:00PM). If certain parking lots are closed by the Police Department, it means that lot is full. The Police Officers are there directing traffic to help you find a lot with available parking spaces.

Don’t ride in circles around the other parking lots looking for a space to open up. Go immediately to Lot #1. Drive to the back of Lot #1 and turn left. The Trammell Trail starts there. The Trammell Trail is a short walkway that leads from Lot #1 right into the center of the Campus. The first branch to the left takes you right behind the Library. The Trail continues on to the Back Campus Road. The MAN, the MAC, and the MAS buildings are right there in front of you. The Student Life Center (SLC) is just to your right.

VOILA !!! You made it.

Make your life easier-------TRY LOT #1


Anyway, that's what the Brookdale Police suggest. What do you say to that?

How Green is our Valley????????

Last year, through the College's "Governance" process (which involves students as well as employees from every department), Brookdale created a College-wide Action Team on Sustainability, a.k.a., the Green Team. The Green Team is supposed to be looking at everything Brookdale does--from styrofoam coffee cups to storm drains that go into the Swimming River reservoir--and come up with ways of making the College more environmentally friendly.

One result of the group's work are new recycling containers that separate paper from cans and general trash.

But what else should we be doing?

Your blogging is welcome and will be taken to heart by the College.

Are You An Adult????????

We're not trying to be insulting. We just want to know if you're a "working adult." More than half of Brookdale's students are holding down a job while getting a college degree. How many of you are in the same boat? Is there some way we can make your life easier? One suggestion we heard is to cut our 15-week classes down to 7 weeks and then include an in-class session and an on-line session each week. Somebody else said maybe we do a split over 15 weeks, with students meeting the professor in class one week and then on-line the following.

Well?
