Oct. 11––N.D.

Campus Security confiscated a misused handicap placard from a student at 12:50 p.m. in Lot 2-C next to La Playa Stadium. Security contacted the student and he confessed it belonged to his mother. The placard has been forwarded to the Santa Barbara Police Department to file a report and issue fines. This was the tenth case of a handicap placard misuse this semester, and security has received several complaints from disabled faculty and students for not having enough handicapped-accessible parking stalls available, despite the college meeting all requirements for handicapped-accessible parking. Security said availability is being hindered because of the misuse of placards, which is why it is cracking down on the problem.

She said she also has some discomfort in one of her hands. The case was turned over to Administrative Services for any further medical attention.
