School is Going Great, Except for This One Pesky Little Thing....

I have Started classes at Park University Alll of them are interesting, there is alot of diversity in the classes, the instucters are top notch, But there is one problem that I am having Transportation, My friend is taking me to the classe but he can't do this full time he has his life to do deal with so I have been plastering flyers where ever I can to get a ride to go to the campus. I have contacted the Kansas City Area Transit Authority to see if there was anyway to get a route to the college, they told me that they didn't have the funding. I have also heard rumors to the effect that the City of Parkeville, Missouri didn't want the Kansas City Pan handlers and indigent coming to thier city by bus. I have posted my information on several carpool sites in the endeavor to obtain a ride to where I need to go to class. I have found out that there is more than just me needing transportation to get to Park Univesity, so this is more than just me this is about those, who like me, have to fight harder to get to the Campus to get that that ever elusive College degree.

I went through another hoop tonight, I went to the Student Senate of Park University, I went to shed some light on a problem that affects more than just me. To see if there was a a way to get a resolution to this problem. to see if they could put together a Carpool or ride matching program out there for the students that need such a situation. I also proposed an idea that i hope they will take to the adminstration of the possibility of a shuttle bus from a point close to the university. This issue sparked a alot of questions from the student senators and a huge disscussion of this problem that I hope will brings results for thiose fighting to get an education for a better life.

I am looking for results on this issue and will Ride this down to the end,

Evan
