Bring back the shuttle to manhattan. Don't raise cost of attendance and remove services.

Please add more times for the Staten Island Schedule! 6 a.m and 7 p.m. shuttles are not enough!

STJ needs to realize that the safety of their students is far more important than saving a couple extra bucks.....

I've literally taken the shuttle in the morning just twice this semester. The transition to a 45-minute interval doesn't help since you're often late.

They got rid of the Manhattan and Kew Gardens shuttles to accommodate more of the Queens residents that need to get to their off-campus housing. HOWEVER it did not work. The schedule is terrible- and the buses are never on time! It is absurd to have these big buses riding around Queens at 5mph. Invest in some vans that can go back and forth every 20 minutes! Many other schools use that system and it is much more realistic! I am sick of being late to class because of the shuttles, and I am not excited to walk to school when it is 16 degrees out! WE ARE ST. JOHN'S- SO, LISTEN TO US!

St. John's Logic = Get entirely new multimillion dollar Manhattan campus and then have no way for the students to get to it.

I think if St. John's wants to hold it's name as a New York City University and a Metropolitan University, it is imperative to make sure that they make access to into the city seamless. There are so many commuter students it is impossible to be an active student on campus and take advantage of what NYC as a whole has to offer. The Q46 bus is unreliable, crowded, and a nightmare when it is winter. It makes something as basic as getting to class on time up in the air. If they want good students, from all around the country/world, they need to reach out of it's pocket of Jamaica.

Waited 30 minutes in the rain today for a shuttle bus, while the driver sat inside refusing to let anyone on board. We then almost got into 3 seperate accidents, one in which the driver stopped to curse someone out. Unprofessional.

bus drivers need to stop talking on the phone so us students can get him and to school at the times the schedule says so. If the schedule says the bus is leaving at 240 I expect it to leave at 240 not at 3 because the bus driver was talking on the phone in the back of the bus. I have work to go to and other places at a certain time.

The commute from Queens to Manhattan and vice-versa has been a struggle during the past month of this semester. Inconsistent transport schedules, and crowded buses and subway carts should be enough reason for St. John's University to bring back the Manhattan shuttle service for its students.

the bew bus schedule is even worse and what does the school have to say? that the shuttle is only a "service" and that we dont have to take it. so where does 10000$ go then...?
