All Heidelberg faculty, staff and students must register their vehicles annually within the first five days of their first class. Failure to register a vehicle will result in a $50.00 fine and/or disciplinary action. Vehicle registration is completed by logging on to OASIS2 and following the instructions. Upon completion of the registration, the vehicle hanger can be aquired at the Business Office by showing your student/faculty ID.
The issued parking hanger is to be hung on the inside rearview mirror so the numbers are visible from the outside of the vehicle. If for some reason the hanger will not fit on the mirror, hang it from a string by punching holes in the hanger. The driver of the car will be responsible for placing the hanger so it can be read from outside the vehicle.
All overnight visitors to the campus must obtain a visitor’s parking pass. Please contact the Campus Safety & Security Director’s office (CC 206) during regular business hours (Monday through Friday, 8am - 4:30pm) to obtain a visitor’s pass or by calling 419-448-2211. The visitor’s pass is a large red sheet of paper; it can be placed on the dash in front of the driver so that it can be read from outside of the vehicle.
