Beginning January 3, 2026, Shawnee State University will charge for parking during Shawnee State athletic events held at Rhodes Athletic Center. The parking lots affected are the A1 Health Sciences and A2 Athletics lots to the south of Rhodes Athletic Center, and the B2 Reserved lot to the north.
Signs will be posted on lots during events that require a parking fee. The fee will be $5.40 per car and can be paid by scanning a QR code or visiting a website link posted on signs in each lot.
Those who display a Reserved or Athletic-endorsed permit issued by Shawnee State University will be allowed to park in event lots without paying an additional fee. SSU Golden Bears will also be permitted to park without charge if a parking pass is visible on their vehicle.
Parking fees will apply to all athletic contests and events held at Rhodes Athletic Center. SSU’s Department of Public Safety will monitor lots and may issue tickets or tow those who are not permitted to park in an event lot.
