Monmouth U. parking fee should include surveillance As of May 14, 2007, Monmouth University began charging $330 per year for residents to park on campus. My family and I figured that the convenience of having a car on campus was worth the expense. After paying the fee, I had not given it much thought until a couple of weeks ago. As I arrived at my car, I discovered that my driver's side-view mirror had been smashed. After immediately reporting the damage toMUPD, I was told that I was not the first to have this happen. My question to Monmouth University is, "If you are asking me to pay $330 to park on your campus, should the cost not include assurance that my vehicle will not be damaged?" I encourage Monmouth to install cameras in their parking lots for surveillance purposes. Had there been cameras present when the vandalization occurred, I may not now be stuck with a bill for $100 for mirror repairs. Installing cameras now could discourage others from committing such acts in the future. I would like to be sure that my property is being taken care of to the best of the university's ability. I hope that Monmouth University and the surrounding communities will take this into consideration. Thank you. Kate Walsh Voorhees Student, Monmouth University West Long Branch
