The commuter problem does not end at the parking deck
Virginia Commonwealth University simply does not have enough dorms to house the majority of its students, and because of that, many students commute. Many find off-campus housing within walking distance or at least a short drive away. However, there are still students who drive 30 minutes to an hour to get to campus.
