Wk 7 - Shuttle Buses
My opinion is dealing with keeping the shuttle buses or not. I have been hearing students saying that they are quitting the shuttle buses as of the last few weeks. Well I don’t know if it’s a rumor or not because I been seeing them running and dropping students off. In the beginning of the semester, I had to walk around the roads just to get to school because the shuttle buses were getting backed up with a ton of students. So now I have to get up earlier and get an earlier parking spot. But as of today, I been noticing there are a lot of open parking spots, so I don’t know if it depends on the day if it will be packed or not. Walking the roads was a pain in the ass and we shouldn’t have to do so. But by the time the other shuttle bus come, there is a huge line and it’s not worth waiting for a ride, so students decide to walk. So you were better off walking instead of waiting. Let me tell yah, it was great exercise doing that walk early in the morning because it seems like a mile, plus carrying a book bag full of heavy books. When winter comes, students are not gonna want to walk to class with the side-roads full of huge snow-drifts, plus it will be a freezing, cold walk. So you can disagree with me or agree, but I think they should keep the shuttle buses so students can get transportation from the East Campus to the Main Campus.

Same here..i believe that ICC should keep the shuttle buses because i too had to walk that long walk and it wasn't fun. I too heard that they were getting rid of the shuttle buses so i started leaving eariler so get a parking spot. But i do hope that they keep them because it would help a lot of students out.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think the shuttle buses, however inefficient, should at least be an option. You're noticed more parking spaces because as the semester wears on, students are not making it to class.
