Park it next to the nearest lightpost, REALLY close so some a$$ cant ding it. As for covering it up... F that. Being a former FRAT a$$hole... I can honestly say if you cover it up, people will F with it. I went to UMD and there were PLENTY of spaces really far from campus where no one will touch it.

If your worried about rain or snow or whatever and dont even want to keep it outside... take a valium... its only a car. Hell, when you graduate from Cornell, you will make nice bank and you can buy a HOT new Audi, BMW or MB when you get out.
