Its the cars that are parked outside way in the back that have problems. Security does not patrol that area much. If your in the garages you will almost always see parking enforcement check cars for parking permits/walking around.

First I would like to say congrats and good luck next semester, I'll be my last semester so i'm excited....

about stolen cars, if you ask me I don't worry, i've always driven my foxbodies there, I drove my 96 Cobra there all the time and never had problem, you just have to be smart about how you park. Have an Alarm, and when parking a foxbody pop the hood and disconnect something. But like I said I've never had a problem, I also know lots of students that go to CSUS and I always park in the same spot so I know my friends have their eyes out for my car. Is parking a problem?? YES it is a big problem, last semester there was a day that they stole 3 mustangs in one day, so Try not to drive your mustangs, and if you have to, have a good alarm and pull into school quietly with out getting any attention. Don't riv up or blast music.

I don't do any of that stuff.
i am going to try not to drive my Mustang. Maybe my dad will let me cruise the Lightning

I heard the Ramona Ave parking lot always has someone attending the gate.

I got a bunch of security stuff on my car but i still worry. I'm gonna buy a beater hopefully or my mom wants a little car that she can cruise maybe i'll just pimp her expi or something if my dad finds her a car.

I've parked all of my cars there and never had a problem. 95GT, '01 Cobra, '03 Cobra, never been broken into. My '01 Cobra was keyed most likely at school, but I cannot confirm that because I didn't notice it until the day after school. Better that than having the top slashed though. If you go to school during the day, I'd say your car is pretty damn safe, especially in the morning. At night, park in the staff parking close to your classes if you can.

Turn your wheels all the way to one side so it can't be towed, and don't back into your spot. Install a fuel pump switch or something and maybe buy a Club. All of these thing combined will definitely help your chances of keeping your car. Keep a low profile, and don't rev in the parking lot or burnout in front of the dorms lol. Luckily this semester I'm carpooling on my brother's car so my Cobra will be safe at home. Maybe I'll see you at school sometime.

i always thought backing it in was the best because if they can't break into your car to undo the parking brake and put it in neutral they wouldn't be able to tow it or put it on a flat bed.

yes this is intersting,, anyone know about this controversy.. back in or park normal?>?

The schedule is only available on-line now.

And I still say get a beater. Even if nobody tries to steal your car, a lot of the spots are tight and you could easily get door dinged.

I am pretty sure it doesnt mattter if you have a letter or not and it helping you get your major. Registration depends on what priority you have. If your one of the last priority your gonna be SOL. Also when adding classes most teachers take the highest rank class members first. That is graduating seniors, seniors, junior, ...etc. Good luck with your schedule, I know mine sucked when I was lower priority registration.
