Vehicle Registration & Parking
All privately owned and/or operated vehicles used on campus by students and staff must be registered in the Security Office (Room A-70A) and must bear an official registration decal for which there is a charge of $10. Decals are valid from each Fall semester through the end of the following Summer semester. The vehicle registration decal must be displayed on a vehicle by the owner or driver in such a manner that it will be clearly visible from the rear of the vehicle. Vehicles so registered must be parked as directed. Students should park in the designated lot and park each vehicle so that it is headed into the parking place with the decal exposed to the traffic lanes. No vehicles are to be parked in the road or on the shoulders of the road. Any vehicle improperly parked may be towed away at the owner's expense. The speed limit on campus is 15 m.p.h. Pedestrians are entitled to the right of way but should exercise caution and courtesy so as not to impede the orderly flow of traffic. Special parking areas are provided for students with disabilities. Disabled parking is governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee. Parking for students enrolled in special courses will be regulated as specified in the course announcement.
Print out a Parking Registration Form - take this form along with your receipt from the business office to the security office to claim your parking decal.

The college is committed to protecting the environment and maintaining the appearance
of campus grounds and buildings. Any student, faculty, or staff member who litters campus property will be issued a citation. Please refer to the current Student Handbook for a listing of the applicable fines. Littering includes the improper disposal of small items such as cigarette butts, bottle caps, and candy wrappers, etc. Littering also encompasses larger items of trash such as newspapers, tissues/ napkins, food wrappers, cans/bottles, etc.
The purpose of the policy is to promote a safe, healthy and clean campus. Ideally, smoking, eating, and drinking would be confined to designated areas. However, inadequate facilities do not allow a universal policy for the behaviors. therefore, the following guidelines will regulate the three functions on the property of the college:
Smoking: The campus is a smoke-free facility. Smoking is not permitted on campus except
in designated, outside areas.
Eating is not permitted in classrooms or labs.
Drinking is not permitted in labs and not encouraged in classrooms.
