In 2013 Bikes are healthy and safe and do not do damage property,save gas and are green economical fun and encourage people to exercise.The federal government,state,county,city AND VIA.. all promote safe bike commuting.
however the college district takes the opposite standthat students on bikes are not safe and have banned riding bicycyles to class on campus pathways,which are used by maintenance vehicles,car shows and campus security on bikes themselves !!! this is a public institution..The college is suppose to be for the student not against student needs in these matters the policy makers have become detached and no longer understand what is it is to be a college student.
at this time students on bikes however are banned from riding on campus property and may receive an $11.00 ticket from the campus police.
College students and bikes go together
may is Bike month so lets promote these colleges to be Bike friendly !!
There are no statistics or data to show bikes on campus do any damage and bike are great for campus commuting ! the campus now offers student housing but the bike ban policy stands
LETS JOIN THE 21ST CENTURY NOT EVERYONE CAN AFFORD HIGH GAS PRICES,THE DISTRICT HOWEVER PROVIDES THE CHANCELOR WITH A FREE GAS CARD AND $1000. FOR VEHICLE MONTHLY EXPENSES HOWEVER THE STUDENTS RECEIVE NO SUCH FREE RIDE.MAYBE HE SHOULD TRY BIKE RIDING AND FEEL THE BENEFIT AND FREEDOM OF GOING GREEN.
