Quick Stats

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Hanover is an incredibly pedestrian campus, so most students only use their cars to travel off campus, like to Madison or home for the weekend. It only takes a 15-minute walk to get from the far side of campus to the other, so students walk everywhere. Most residence halls and campus housing are only 5 to 10 minutes away from academic buildings, so no one has very far to go. Students who bring cars on campus must register their vehicles by filling out a form at the security building at the beginning of the year. Students are given a sticker that goes on the front windshield of their cars, making them recognizable to Campus Security.

Parking is available near most residence halls, but parking near academic buildings is very limited because the College promotes walking to class. Freshmen have a separate parking lot on the outskirts of campus, but they cannot bring cars to campus until after fall break, unless they receive a special permit or live more than 150 miles away. Many students have bicycles on campus, and there are plenty of bike racks where you can lock them up.

Parking Is a Pain

For Freshman, parking is at the far end of campus. There are all these open lots near the freshmen dorms that are not being used but if a freshman were to park there, they get ticketed almost instantly. Hanover is pretty strict about parking. I don't know one person who has a car on campus that HAS NOT gotten a ticket for one reason or another. Parking for upperclassmen appears to be a bit better, probably because their parking is right behind their dorms.

Availability of Parking

There are plenty of available parking spots all over campus. If you want to park near your residence hall instead of the freshman lot there is a specific amount of time you can keep it there without geting a ticket.

Discouraged

With a strong "Go Green" initiative on campus, the administration and various organizations are pushing for a pedestrian-only campus. But for now, there is parking all over the place. Though the number of spots specifically labeled for students apart from dorm parking is seriously limited.
