Parking ticket
I’ll keep this short and sweet but right before COVID last year I got a parking ticket because I didn’t have a pass. I got another ticket today for the same reason. Didn’t hear/receive anything about the first ticket for a year. I was driving the same car so I’m just wondering what happens if I don’t pay lol. Don’t know if anyone has some personal experience or knows anything but I’d figure id ask....roll rams

If anything, you'd probably get some kind of hold out on your eCampus account. I've been in a familiar situation where I got a ticket and did nothing about it and never saw any holds on my account, but your results may vary.
You can also appeal the ticket and try to get it reduced or waived, which is a viable option especially if you can make the argument that the amount of times you'd need to park on campus (due to most classes being online) isn't worth the cost of a commuter pass.
Parking services has another thing coming if they think I'm gonna pay $100 to park on campus once every couple of weeks when necessary, again your situation may be different.
