[Letter from Tony Fair]

Sir,

Parking a car at the University is always a lot harder than passing an exam. Some people are trying to make the exams harder, but nobody appears to be making car parking any easier. During the "Open Day", the lecture block had a scale model of the expansion planned for the university buildings with nothing to include additional parking for Staff or Students.

At present Staff are over-catered, and Students are under catered, for parking spaces but the Staff carpark is planned to be reduced in size with the expansion of the University so they too will be in the same situation as the Student is today. One thing that is apparent from the model is that there is no future building planned for the site which is now the Students Carpark. What I would like to suggest is that the car Club Members start making a few noises, (to the Students Assn. etc.) about getting a Car Park building built on this site. If the University Students and Staff don't do something about this now then things can only get worse as the University grows.

Tony Fair.
