Graduating Students: Don't forget to register for your 2 free parking permits for May 13th. Please note that if you plan to attend the SC&I ceremony as well, your best bet is to get permits to the Orange Zone on Livingston. This would enable you to park near the RAC in the morning, take the shuttle to the stadium, enjoy commencement, take the shuttle back to Livingston, enjoy SC&I convocation, then leave at the end of the day - all without having to fight traffic through the day: http://commencement.rutgers.edu
