I love the fact that there is some goodies for evening commuters. But do you have anything available for Commuters that get the V-Line bus leaving campus at 2:15 or 5:15 or Even arriving on the 10:15 am buses? There are a lot of neat things to be involved in but for people that need to be on that 2:15 bus time is a major factor. Thank you for listening.
Hi Cindy, thank you for the feedback!The Off-Campus Student Life (OCSL) Program organizes the “Good Morning Commuter” and “Good Evening Commuter” events. Feedback from students is what helps them know where their efforts are needed. We recommend reaching out to them via their instagram page @ocslprogram. All the best.
