Parking
As a TA, you are entitled to purchase a restricted (faculty) parking permit. Permits are available at Parking Services in the Mathews Street Garage, 202 Student Center Dr. (8:00 am-5:00 pm), or online at http://www.parking.txstate.edu. A restricted permit costs $335. First-year TAs may not be able to get their restricted permits until the University has processed all hiring paperwork. If you need parking immediately, you may buy a student perimeter (purple) permit and then upgrade it to a restricted permit in a couple of weeks. Keep your receipt.
