This is the first year in which a uniform set of rules for all units of the University of Montana has been established and placed in operation. It is e~ident at this time that certain individuals to whom the rules apply have not read the regulatons or believe that they do not apply to them. The control or-these regulations by a uniform set of fines was- recommended by the presidents of the various units and adopted by the State Board of Education, ex officio Regents. The regulations for control are quite simple and should be easily qnderstood by all parties concerned. 'Dhe general responsibility for the enforcement of these regulations at Montana School of Mines has been assigned to the Dean's office. A notice entitled, "Student 'itutomobile Regulations", dated September 14, was posted on all bulletin boards and made available to all stu'dents through their advisers at the time of registration in September : 'and is being published here for the information of all concerned.

Vol. VIII, No.3
Cars parked as these are reduce" space available for other vehicles. "Signs have been p;'vided which indicat~ areas for faculty, staff, and visitor parking. Parking is allowed only in areas designated for your parking. The circular area between the Engineer-. ing and Petroleum-Physics buildings is reserved for student parking. Students are requested to' angle park in this area in such a way as to use only one parking' space. Space is .provided behind and on the north side of the Residence Hall for student parking. Parking in the driveway in front of- the Residence Hall or in the'<runways leading to this area is absolutely prohibited. Residence Hall students should not use the limited parking facilities on the main campus during class hours. Traffic fines to be levied uniformly: (1) On the first violation, $1 fine with no previous warning. (2) On the second and third violations, $3 fine. (3) On the fourth violation, $5 fine. (4) On the fifth violation, $5 fine, plus revoking driving privileges on the campus." When compared with major colleges, the parking problems here are few. Those that do exist can be minimized by full cooperation of faculty, -staff, and' students. There would-be room for additional cars if all drivers would make an effort to use no more space than necessary for parking their cars. It has been noticeable that the late cars arriving on the campus in time for 8 o'clock classes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays have difficulty in' finding parking space. near classroom buildings. Drivers arriving at 8: 00 a.m. on these days would save time by using available parking space directly behind the residence hall or by parking on the west and north ends of the football field and walking up the ramp. The possibility of opening additional space for student parking on the campus is being studied. One possibility for this lies directly west of the metallurgy building. Suggestions have been made about painting stripes designating parking space, placing names on faculty parking spaces, making the circle one-way driving counter-clockwise, placing stickers on windshields, etc. Oneway traffic around the circle was designated and given sufficient trial in 1957. The sign indicating this was generally disregarded in the rush for desirable space on busy mornings. With full cooperation, one-way traffic could prove satisfactory. (Continued
