Senate to Consider LTD Surplus Request Tonight
Tonight the ASUO Senate will be hearing a surplus request that would extend LTD bus service to campus until 2 a.m. along the 79x route.
The 79x route is considered vital because it runs past the Stadium Park apartments, where the Administration decided to house overflow freshmen this year. Without the bus route, freshmen are forced to walk through Alton Baker Park at night to get home.
The plan, constructed by ASUO exec Sam Dotters-Katz, would cost $40,257, roughly half of which would be covered by the UO Administration. It’s good to see the Administration covering some of this cost, considering it created this boondoggle in the first place.
The off-campus freshmen have put a big strain on other university services, such as the Designated Driver Shuttle. In lieu of bus service, the freshmen hitch rides with DDS, meaning the people DDS is actually intended for (drunkards) are left out in the cold (or, worse, decide to drive anyways).
I’ll have a summary of the meeting tonight, and, as always, you can get live updates via Twitter.
God, Sam. If you want quorum, tell your minions to show up! I can’t wait until Perley gets his ass booted.
I thought DDS was only for scrunt to get to off campus parties
Sloppiest shitshow of a senate meeting ever. They only had 13 people there, and they needed 14 to make quoram. Basically the entire thing didn’t mean shit.
ahhh, brings back memories…
