“Me parece bien como UTRGV ha estado empleando la transportación entre campuses. Ha habido veces en las que si he tenido problemas, en especial saber cuándo estarán disponibles los buses, como en finals y holidays. Me gustaría que tuvieran algún feedback o modo de comunicar el estado de los buses, como cuántos hay disponibles o si alguno está descompuesto. Ayudaría y nos daría la confianza del servicio de transportación”.
“So far, it has been pretty good. Today is my first day. I got picked up pretty early and there was nobody on the bus, so that was pretty sweet. I think it is a really good idea, especially since the campuses are pretty far away from each other, so, I think it’s good. I don’t know how many buses there are, but either way you can request to go back to Harlingen, you know, for the people [who live near] there. So, yeah, I think it is a really good idea.”
“I’m part of the folklórico team here, and one of the buses took us to Brownsville to perform. It was pretty cool and really cold. I remember people were complaining about the Wi-Fi ’cause they couldn’t connect, but we really weren’t there for the Wi-Fi. Besides that, it was OK. I don’t really use it because I park in Zone 2, usually. I get super car sick, and it doesn’t help that the shuttles are, like, sitting sideways instead of to the front.”
“I ride the shuttle because I’d rather not look for parking. Sometimes, it’s kind of hot inside the shuttle and, sometimes, it’s not. Maybe be more consistent. I’d like there to be more trips instead of just waiting. It kind of defeats the purpose of the shuttle.”
