I believe I saw our own @Mike Stuben on X provide the following information "copy/pasted since X links dont transfer.
- SG cut all programming budgets for everyone funded by A&S fees, including their own budgets. Lots of reasons, but the biggest is the hundreds (if not over 1000) minimum wage student jobs that all cost more. The pool of funds doesn’t get bigger, so something had to give.
- One more note, if we had buses, it likely would have been 3 buses making two loops. Each bus seats about 50, so if they were full, this impacts 300 student rides. I just don’t want anyone saying the lack of buses impacted thousands of students….
- I hope those students find a way to the game. Also, remember SG funds Uber discount codes for students, and this would be an excellent use for them. (To help cut the cost down, I know they won’t cover the whole cost)
- (Last note, I promise) Students who have concerns, reach out to SG. I’m not their spokesperson, just sharing some info because the SG social accounts are more active on other apps, and I’m not certain they see stuff on here.
I also saw he said in response to someone about Bull Runners is that the Bull Runners cannot drive on the interstate.
