Introduction
Any person operating a motor vehicle on campus is subject to and must comply with
all traffic regulations of the State of Illinois, the City of Chicago, and Chicago
State University. The regulations and general information are printed for the benefit
and compliance of everyone, and will aid all members of the University community.
Nothing herein is intended to change or replace existing State statutes. The authority
to proscribe and enforce motor vehicle registrations is based upon Illinois statutes
and subsequent actions taken by the Chicago State University Board of Trustees. The
statute with reference to powers of the Board of Trustees appears in Chapter 110,
Illinois Compiled Statutes 610/1.

No liability is created either by granting parking or by granting operating privileges
on property owned, leased or otherwise controlled by Chicago State University. The

however, do make regular tours of the parking lots.
