Wonder how the CATS bus measures up to other universities? I researched three Ohio schools and found this:
Miami University, Oxford ,OH
Miami University, Oxford ,OH
Miami University offers the Miami Metro bus to their students and faculty. The service shuttles riders around on campus, and several locations off campus. The metro bus runs from Mon.-Fri. from 7a.m.-7 p.m., and on the weekends from 11a.m.-3 p.m. Like the CATS bus, the metro bus doesn’t run during the summer.
Kent State University, Kent, OH
Kent State University students ride the PARTA bus, which stands for Portage Area Regional Transportation Authority. Riders are shuttled to several locations on and off campus, and the service is free, but students must present their identification card. Students can even pay $1 to ride to Akron, or $5 to ride to Cleveland. The website was very informative for students which I thought was nice. However, one downside to riding the PARTA is that they don’t allow riders to listen to music while riding!
Univerity of Cincinnati, Cincinnati,OH
Univerity of Cincinnati, Cincinnati,OH
Students that attend the University of Cincinnati are able to take advantage of the BTS---Bearcat Transportation System witht heir identification card. The BTS features three different routes which take students around the city including commercial stops like CVS pharmacy and Pizza Hut. Two of the routes run from 7 a.m.-6p.m. ,and one even runs from 6 p.m.-12 a.m.!
