Garnet Shuttle
The College operates two wheelchair-accessible shuttles, which ferry students to and from campus to help make that early-morning trip to class quick and comfortable. The shuttles are operated by the Public Safety Department and run by professional drivers, some of whom build a great rapport with students. The evening shuttle makes returning home at the end of a long day of studying safe and convenient. Please download the Transloc Rider App for all campus shuttle service.
