By: Kayla Calder    Posted: Thu, 02/09/2010 - 4:06pm

There are far worse things that could happen to Carleton students than having to buy the mandatory transit pass (U-Pass).

The school could charge higher tuition, force club-joiners to pay a high joining fee, or go on strike and leave students shelling out money for nothing.

The U-Pass: incentive to follow the law

By: Monika Lemke    Posted: Thu, 02/09/2010 - 2:55pm
Post to Facebook

With the U-Pass not yet in effect, people are already jumping the gun and crying about how unfair it all is. Our tuition fees, it is argued, grew because of it. Our pockets pay the price, they say. We apologize, nearly, explaining that it's a “pilot project” –– there is really no telling if it will be here to stay.  Students, looking to their wallets, ask, “Why should we pay for the U-Pass?”

Post to Facebook

I am writing in regards to the Graduate Students’ Association (GSA) agendas which are currently being distributed for the 2010-2011 academic year to graduate students at Carleton. I would like to register my disappointment with GSA, and the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS), for what I consider to be a blatant disregard of my freedom of religion.
