The demonstrators, most of whom are Irving residents, were protesting a University decision to allocate 185 resident spaces in the lot to faculty and staff members. They marched in a circle, crossing the entrances to the parking area, waving signs with slogans such as "To Share is Fair" and "If There's An Increase in Assault It's All Your Fault." They urged faculty and staff attemptingto park in the lot to park elsewhere. A portion of the parking area had been designated solely for faculty and staff members this summer after a dispute CONSTRUCTION AT THE Administration parking lot caused protests yesterday at Go and H-Quads.

Indeed, the latter two structures won architectural awards. To those on campus, who are disabled, however, these buildings, as well as several others on campus are a nightmare. It is true that the University has made substantial improvements in some of its facilities for the handicapped on campus. However, one should question whether everything possible is being done or whether the University is just fulfilling the minimum legal requirements. Many conditions which affect the health and safety of handicapped students are being taken care of. However, conditions which affect their comfort are not. The ramp to the Health Sciences Center is much too steep and should be redone. The opera hall in the Fine Arts Center is only accessible to those in wheelchairs who wish to sit behind the last row.
