Parking permits are available to everyone except first-year students. Visitors passes are also available, as well as temporary parking passes that are good for four weeks.
College Prowler Take
Parking does not seem to be an issue at Williams, even though it could be improved. When people come to visit, parking becomes very important, so it is nice to know that people are satisfied with their visitor parking passes. The College has been working on ways to provide parking close enough to one’s residence so that students don't end up walking to their car for a longer time than they drive it. As for the construction projects, the consequences are yet to be seen. Nevertheless, parking is not much of an issue because the campus is so small.

Parking is okay, because Williamstown is just kind of small, but the rules and the paperwork that the buildings and grounds office comes up with can be very annoying. They tend to do everything possible to make your life harder, so the only way to deal with it is just to be stubborn, and try to make their life harder. You shouldn’t have to fill out a million forms just to park your car. It is a waste of everybody’s time. |

Well, sometimes you might end up parking so far away from your dorm, it makes you wonder why you didn’t just walk up the hill. |

Parking might be a problem during family days and other events that just attract many people to town. As far as I remember, though, even during Homecoming weekend, we didn’t have any problems. |

I don’t have a car, but some of my friends who do have cars come to visit, and there was never a problem with visitor’s parking. |
