The experiation date of Aug. 30 for SIUC parking stickers has been extended by the parking division until Sept. 30.

Brian Mager, administrative assistant in the parking division of SIUC said, renewing the date of the parking stickers was necessary.

We wanted to cut down on the rush for parking stickers by lengthening the expiration date, Mager said.

The parking division is open Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Students wanting to renew their stickers are reminded to bring a university I.D., drivers license, liability insurance card and a vehicle registration card, Mager said.

Students living on campus need a copy of their housing contract according to an SIUC parking official. The stickers will cost $30 for students and $60 for faculty.

Jenny Newman, a junior in education from Peoria, said, I am so glad they extended the date, because my rent is due pretty soon and I would have been close to broke.

A spokesman for the SIUC police said they have been notified of the change in the date of the parking sticker expiration and will not be giving tickets to students without updated stickers until Sept. 30.

Steve Simon, an undeclared sophomore from Chicago, said, I did not know they extended the date. They should have sent out letters in the mail. I am glad they extended the time, though. I can use the $30 on something else now.

The parking division is located in Washington Square in building B.
