[One option currently under consideration by SGA is to charge students who wish to use the Stingerette for off-campus travel an additional fee.] We would like to look at the possibility of having students who rode the Stingerette swipe their BuzzCard for off-campus driving, ... There might be reasons it could not work, but we think it's definitely something worth looking at. |
Although this is still in the planning stage, it is something we are pushing for. These are great ways to raise money because sometimes students want to give [donations], but don't have cash on them. We've gotten good responses from both the Bursar's Office and Auxiliary Services. |
Charter believes the issues under investigation are similar to those raised in previously reported class actions pending against the company, and certain individual defendants, and will cooperate fully with the subpoena, |

Honestly, it is a matter of what the students want. Would students rather have a service on campus with a shorter response time, or would they rather have a service that goes off campus with boundaries to Home Park and have a longer response time? Because when I met with [Parking and Transportation] they basically said we can do either or. |
I met with [Robert Furniss, director of Parking and Transportation] last week...and it's a very complicated issue. From the parking department's perspective there aren't the resources available [to keep the service going off-campus]. |
I still think this situation could have been handled better and I still think there should have been more of a heads up for students. We should have received a megamod in the summer about this, and in the beginning of the summer. |
I'm very happy to see the campus and everybody in the Georgia Tech community come together to make this a priority. People have put off agenda items and Labor Day plans to service those in need. |
It is only open to students now and we basically worked out an agreement with the AA where they are still going to pay for maintenance, but the CRC is in charge of operating the facility. They check people's BuzzCard, maintain the facility, and check for non-marking shoes. |
It's a tremendous cost savings for me. |
Not a week goes by that I don't get a call from someone who has visited the Frye and wants to know what paint color we used. I'm constantly giving out the paint formula number. |
The compromise we made with the AA this time was a fair one. It is a privilege for us to use these courts and in order to continue using them we need to work together so that the courts stay in good condition. |
This garden is the crown jewel of the entire restoration project. The flowers cost $150,000. But it cost four times that for the layers upon layers of work in this garden that people never see, such as the archeology, the engineering, and the irrigation. |
This is a good business, and everyone wants a piece of the pie. |
We are working to bring up our plant just behind the power utility. As such, we hope to be working in terms of weeks — not months. |
