Wayne Provos Protest Parking Fees

by

Fifth Estate # 31, June 1-15, 1967

A call for ending parking fees at Wayne State University was made last week by the Wayne Provos. The group, fashioned after the Amsterdam Provos in Holland, plans to protest by putting epoxy glue in parking meters and the coin slots in the automatic parking lots.

A Provo leader told the FIFTH ESTATE that parking fees and parking meters served as taxes on Wayne students. Something should be done now. These parking facilities should be free to all students.

Future demonstrations are in the works. Students wishing to assist the provos can do so by refusing to pay their meter tax.
