Constituent Concerns
Entrance/Exits outside Laurel Hall and Morris Library onto South College Avenue are dangerous. It is difficult for cars, motorcycles, and pedestrians to safely negotiate these areas. Public Safety has been notified of this concern.
A bus stop on South College Avenue near the Laurel Hall area would be a helpful addition to the campus. Transportation Services was notified of this request.
