Parking Issues – Woodburn & Dana Lots

Parking in the lots at the corner of Dana & Woodburn, near Smith Hall, is not permitted unless there is an on-campus event such as a basketball game.

With safety in mind, students should park in Smith Lot (after 5:00pm), Lexington Lot, or Cintas lots, where there is heavier foot traffic, more patrol and emergency phones.

The Alumni Lot off of Dana after 5:00 is also an option.

Please refer to the campus map for the specific locations of these approved parking options.
