For the purpose of this rule, a guest lecturer, teacher, or intern, is not considered a volunteer.  

Volunteers will be issued commuter ePermits free of charge as long as appropriate documentation is provided by the respective department to the Office of Parking and Transportation.
An email must be submitted by the Department Supervisor to faupark@bjrujiabj.com. Permits are issued by semester only!
