A lot of campus locations lack good public transit or local retail access for necessities. When you don’t support any kind of parking you also make it difficult for people who have full time jobs or are continuing education as adults. Single parents also go to school, I know, I was in college as a child(obviously not enrolled.)

    From a European perspective that sounds like madness. 🙃

    > A lot of campus locations lack good public transit or local retail access for necessities. So that’s the problem, that’s what needs to be fixed. Not more parking.

When you support more parking you ironically only make this problem even worse. Look up "induced demand." Not to mention increased tuition (avg cost of garages is in the tens of thousands per spot) and butt ugly campuses filled with parking garages. The real solution is more alternatives to driving so that only the people who actually have to drive do.
