Elyse Hames, freshman neuroscience major:
“Yes. Getting more study spots on campus by possibly adding more cabanas outside Flight Deck [might help]. It’s a really great study space for me because I get some fresh air and I get a chance to get my work done but whenever I go to get [a seat at a cabana] they are always full.”
Nelson Solano, freshman biology major:
“More often than not NSU will plan events and hold the last row in the commuter lot [for these events] and that’s a huge issue because whenever we [students] try and get to class we cannot find parking.”
Meghan Miyares, freshman nursing major:
“Studying and parking. Behind Flight Deck [the cabanas] and in the library it tends to get pretty packed. As for parking, I was a commuter last semester and there was nowhere to park, at all, especially if there was an event on campus. And now in the Goodwin parking lot, if you go out [of your spot] before 9 p.m. and return, all the parking spaces are full.”
Fernanda Laverde, freshman business major:
“I’d say parking. It’s not close to my classes and I have to walk a lot. The lots fill up fast and in the future I’m afraid this situation will just get worse as more students come on campus.”
Rahul Borra, junior Biology major:
“In terms of parking, I think NSU is accepting more students than it can handle. I go out to have dinner sometimes and I come back around 11:30 p.m. and there are no parking spots in CLC and I have to go all the way over the Mailman or Goodwin. I guess study spaces too, especially during midterms week because there is absolutely nowhere to study. Essentially if you don’t find a place early in the morning, you have to study in your room.
