Muaents save money living on-campus but face transportation problem
Wnn tne n*ng costs ot on-campus living, stu
dents have resorted to finding cheaper liv
ing quarters farther from campus
Unfortunately for these students, transportation to
campus can sometimes become a problem.
There are alternatives that can help these com
muters get to campus b*cyding, carpooling and the
LTD bus system
"I would recommend bicycling, walking or taking
the bus." said Diane Bishop, bicycle'atternative
modes coordinator lor the City of Eugene
Bishop does not encourage students to drive
because parking is limited and traffic is getting
worse "People don't consider walking or biking
because they don't have information." said Bishop
Packets that contain information and maps on
LTD, commuting, carpooling, bicycling, walking will
be mailed to Eugene residents in early fall These
commuter packets are available at the Public: Works
Transportation Office at S58 Peart St
For commuters who are unfamiliar with the vicin
ity, bike routes and commuter routes can be found
on a comprehensive map called The
Eugma/Sprtrtgfkskf Street*. Bikes, and Points ot
Interest This map costs S-5 50 and is available at
the University Bookstore and the Public Works
Transportation Office
Students who feet more comfortable nding a bus
can find LTD route information, system maps and
a Rider's Digest at the LTD Customer Service Sta
lion at 10-1 Willamette St.
Those who insist on driving to campus need to
tie sure they have the permit necessary for the area
they park in Parking is available on and off cam
pus
Students who park otf-campus can purchase i
permit Irom the Permit and Information Center or
244 E Broadway Parking permits designated foi
commuters cost Si 7 50 a month Residential stree
parking, for those with an insufficient number o'
parking stalls, cost St5 a year Students can cal
the center for more information at 687-5086
Students who park on-campus can purchase the ■
parking stickers from the Office of Pubic Safety
Cars without a parking sicker will receive a citation
which could cost up to $I?Q Parking stickers last the
entire academic year and expire before the new
school year begins.
Stcker costs are prorated. A sticker purchase*:
during fail term costs $60, during winter term it cost:
$45. during spring term it costs $30, and during
summer term it is $?0 Prices are expected to
increase in the fall.
Only a few /ones are available for students to
park in Those with University parking stickers are
also allowed to park at city regulated meters on
Agate Street and 18th Avenue without depositing
coins (or the whole day
Bikers also need to be sure they have a regis

Tenants’ right to privacy can be ensured
by establishing a few simple guidelines
Rememoer me stupid rule in high school that
allowed teachers to search your locker with
out your permission?
It's the same kind ol thing
Anyone who rents an apartment rents with the
knowledge that the landlord has a key to the place.
When your lease starts to run out, the landlord
wants to show the apartment to his or her next
prospective renters.
This isn't a problem as long as both landlord and
tenant have some guidelines that respect the ten
ant's right to privacy.
• II there isn't a 24-hour policy already, ask that
one be implemented When your landlord wants to
show the apartment, he or she must agree to call at
least 24 hours ahead ol time and to either talk to
you personally or leave a message.
• II you don't want anyone inside your apartment
unless you are present, make sure your landlord
understands that.
One Saturday morning, my bathroom light fixture
fell out ol the wall and was dangling by some wires
I called my landlord's emergency repair number and
was told not to worry about it if it wasn't on lire or
anything, and to call on Monday
When I called Monday, I set up a time for the
electrician to come on Tuesday When asked, I
specifically said I did not want him to use my land
lord's key to come in I wanted to be there when he
was m my apartment
The electrician did not show up between 2 and 4
p m , which was the agreed-upon time. I left at 4 15,
and when I got home at 5 30, the light I xture was
fixed Apparently, the electrician thought this was an
emergency and decided to let himself into my apart
ment anyway.
This situation was a matter of miscommumcation
Make sure you are perfectly clear when you tell your
landlord that you want to be present to let electri
cians or other repairmen in.
* When you do set up a time for other people to
see your apartment or for repairs, make sure both
you and the landlord have the right time If there is a
misunderstanding, it can be embarrassing for every
one involved.
My landlord called to let me know she was going
to show my apartment on Friday at 4 30 p m — so
she says I thought she said Thursday I was gone
all day Thursday Friday I was home all afternoon I
was not expecting visitors, and due to unusual cir
cumstances, I would not have asked my mother to
come in if she had appeared on my doorstep
When my landlord knocked, I refused to let her in,
explaining that I thought the appointment had been
for Thursday Fortunately for me she was under
standing, and we made another appointment the fol
lowing week Unfortunately for my landlord, the
woman interested in looking at my apartment was
no longer interested by then
• When you rent, make sure your lease has
something in writing about others entering your
apartment At least once during your time there,
other people are going to be letting themselves into
your place, and some landlords will assume you are
comfortable with this If you aren't, it's OK to be
uptight You have the right to be uptight about your
privacy.

required up front. Included is your application lee rang
ing from $10 to $30, first and last month's rent, and a
security deposit of about $150 to $200, hall of which
is usually refundable. Rent ranges from $330 to $495
for a single bedroom apartment. $500 to $640 lor a
two bedroom, and $690 to $800 for three bedrooms
Utilities are generally not included
Quads are another good option, and are more
affordable than apartments For about $250 to $300 a
month, including utilities, you get your own bedroom
and bathroom, and share a kitchen and living room
with up to three other people Application and movmg
In costs are comparable to those of an apartment
If you don't mind living with eight to 15 other peo
pie, and possibly not having your own room, then I
suggest looking into a co-op Average rent is about
$250 to $275 per month and moving-m costs include
first and last month's rent and a security deposit of
about $75 to $125. half of which is usually refundable.
On to houses Let the renter beware1 Sure they're
fun to have but they are generally the least economical
and the most troublesome housing option. Rent is con
siderably higher, anywhere from $400 for a single bed
room to $1600 for a four to five bedroom house
Deposits are larger, $200 to $300, often not refund
able at all. Heating can be quite a financial burden,
especially if a home lacks insulation, and generally
garbage disposal is an added expense.
Since the majority of rental homes within a 15-block
radius of campus are older, beware of rats, mice and
ants. Some landlords are reluctant to call an extermi
nator, unless it's at the renters expense, so inspect
