Here at Montclair State University, we, as students of the community, are fortunate enough to be provided with public transportation around campus. But, did you know that students with disabilities MUST ride on a separate bus? Well yeah, maybe you knew that.... But did you know... If your best friend is on the bus for students with disabilities and you wanted to keep him or her company and hangout, you are NOT allowed to accompany your friend? We are creating this petition on behalf of Montclair State University to attempt to construct a completely equal transportation method for students. We will not accept "separate, but equal". One bus with a universal design is cheaper than 2 buses with separate designs. Please sign your name below to help support our desires and spread awareness. Thank you.
I have been hearing from so many of you who find this segregated system as humiliating and unnecessary as I do. We are currently gathering documents to prove that a universal design is not only the right thing to do but is also more efficient for our campus budget. Do not let the administration think we are going to stop pushing until we are all riding together.

Seeing this kind of energy for a fairer campus makes me think of my friend who has been waiting for this change for years. We are showing the administration that we refuse to accept a system that keeps us apart.

My roommate uses a wheelchair and this drives us crazy. We should be able to ride the same shuttle to class.

Ridiculous waste of money. Just make one bus for everyone and stop the segregation.

This is ridiculous. It is 2024 not 1950. Friends should be able to sit together no matter what.
