  • Have driven an un-registered vehicle to school

Placement of Permit

Student, Disabled, Visitor, Employee and Faculty permits
Student, Disabled, Visitor, Employee, and Faculty Permits should be hung from the rearview mirror. If you do not have a rearview mirror, place the permit on the vehicle’s dashboard, where it is clearly visible to the Department of Public Safety staff.

Temporary Permits
Temporary Permits should be hung from the rearview mirror OR placed on the vehicle’s dashboard, where it is clearly visible to the Department of Public Safety staff. Do NOT place permit on outside of vehicle.

Lost/Stolen Permits
If your lose or have your permit stolen, report it to a Public Safety Officer in the Student Services Office immediately. There is a $10.00 fee for replacement permits. If a stolen permit is found on another vehicle, that vehicle will be cited, immobilized and/or towed.

Changing Your Vehicle
If you begin driving a different vehicle, you must inform a Public Safety Officer with your vehicle’s new license number, year, make, model, and color. If the Permit number doesn’t match the vehicle that permit is registered to, it is assumed that the permit was stolen and the vehicle will be cited and/or immobilized or towed.

Physical Placement of Your Vehicle
For maintenance of the parking area by the Public Safety Officers on campus, students are required to pull into parking spaces. Do not back in or pull through a parking space. Two reasons exist for this policy:

  • It simplifies the checking of parking permits to prevent unauthorized parking on the campus.
  • Many vehicles, especially pick-ups, have a greater length from rear axle to rear end of the vehicle then they do from front axel to front end of the vehicle. Because of this, bumper blocks and curbs are not effective in stopping the vehicle before they do damage to shrubs, trees, buildings, etc.

 
Vehicles should also be positioned between the parking spaces. Overlapping or double parking is considered a parking violation. Please be considerate of others by ensuring that your vehicle is parked within the lines.

Parking Areas Policy:
Any vehicle without a valid permit parked at Sullivan University will be cited and/or towed at the owner’s expense. Any vehicle with or without a valid permit, which is parked in one of the following areas also will be cited and/or towed at owner’s expense:

  • Disabled area without an issued State Disabled permit

  • On the grass
  • In an area blocking a drive or another vehicle
