As a university town with many carless students, we need a robust public transit system. I’d like to see Sen Deery fight for us at the statehouse, if he is indeed representing us to the statehouse and not the other way around.
Are we great yet? Purdue and Indiana in general are caving to for-profit companies over regional city services. We are fortunate in Lafayette to still have a lot of control to serve the greater good. But everything is moving downward, eventually to be gone. This national administration has made lots of cuts to regional services, and Purdue is great at acquiescence so far.
Purdue University representatives were always very hard bargainers with CityBus. It appears that in recent years Purdue University was very demanding of CityBus services while not being fair or understanding with the community's public transportation system. It may becoming more obvious to Purdue students, particularly graduate students that Purdue University transportation officials have little understanding or care for their real needs. The Connector was a great community service, and Purdue students definitely needed it. But CityBus can't really afford to operate it without enough drivers. Purdue could have done more. It has not. Now we see who suffers.

He is only interested in using Purdue to show what a good lion tamer he is.
Now I'm stuck on lyin' as a homophone. Comment abort!
