Shuttle system only important for a selective few students

Dear Editor,
 
    I think that the shuttle system at GCSU definitely has its strong points and is a great service offered to the students, especially those living in Bobcat Village and students who park their cars at the Irwin Street Parking Lot. 
    However, sometimes I feel like it is faster for me to walk with my big bags from Wal-Mart from Irwin Street to the dorms.  I think the shuttle system just hasn’t quite gotten all the kinks out of its system.  For instance, there will be no shuttle for ten or fifteen minutes, and then there will be three all sitting there at the same time.  Also, those who work late, or park their car late after going out, have to either wait a long time at night in the dark, or walk back really late.  This is not the safest thing for us to be doing, especially female students.  I have taken the shuttle only a few times when it was incredibly hot or raining, but for the most part, I feel like it is just faster for me to walk wherever it is I need to go.
 
Sincerely, 
Kelsey Hillard
