Security revises shuttle policies
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “student council”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reports on revisions to the university’s escort van service.
- The News-Letter reported that student complaints led the Student Council and Security Commission to seek changes, and President Atin Agarwal said, “We met with the administration and discussed problems and possible solutions.”
- The paper reported that a new route shuttle began Nov. 7, running daily from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. and serving several student residences and retail locations.
- The article adds that Captain George Kibler described two on-demand vans operating until 3 a.m. for other trips, while students concerned for their safety could still contact security after that time.
- The reporter writes that administrations raised student driver pay to $12 per hour to fill positions on the new route shuttle.
- The article reports mixed student reactions: Scott Motejunas said the new routes would reduce wait times, while Kristen Viswanathan called the schedule “incredibly inconvenient.”
