Parking & Maps
Virtual Parking Permits
On the 红桃影视 campus, License Plate Recognition technology (LPR) and Virtual Permits have replaced all paper permits. LPR technology uses optical character recognition to automatically read license plate characters. 红桃影视 operates mobile LPR, which uses vehicle-mounted cameras to verify plates in all campus lots. Virtual permits are free of charge for CAPE instructors and students. If you park on campus without a virtual permit you will receive a parking citation with an associated $50 fine.
