Parking during the first few weeks of each semester has gotten worse and worse, making students who are enrolled in classes late because they are circling the parking lots to no avail.

This problem increased in the fall of 2013 when classes added an extra five minutes to lecture courses, cutting time between classes from 15 minutes to 10. This is not enough time for students leaving campus to walk to their cars, incoming students to take their place, and then walk to their classes without being late.

There should be 15 minute gaps once again between classes, but not by shortening lectures. This way, the stress of students being late is reduced and the school will meet the required full hour and twenty minute lecture times.

This addition could also benefit students, as navigating campus with all of the construction zones is already difficult enough.

The small shift in the course schedule will be just one more thing that can help students out.
