You Asked For It
Q: If the number on my parking decal has faded due to the sun, do I need to get a new one?
A: “Not by policy. However, if you can no longer see the decal or read the number, it’s a good idea to obtain a new decal so that if the situation arises, we can contact you in regards to your vehicle. New decals can be obtained for free in [Records and Graduation Services].”
