Alleluia! I began to rejoice. Stapled to this memo was a little map. After reading the flTSt three lines of the memo, I quickly turned to the map to see where these new, and desperately needed spaces, were. When I saw the name "May Company," my celebration was modified to a gleeful optimism. I quickly flipped back to the memo. It was here that I discov­ ered that John Carroll was offer­ ing a shuttle service to and from the designated parking spaces by May Company in the municipal parking lot. This piqued my inter­ est. I read on only to find that this wonderful plan had one tragic flaw: the infrequency of the shuttle trips. A van leaves from the munici­ pal parking lot every half hour beginning at 7:30a.m. and ending at 9:30 p.m., Mondays through Thursdays, and on Fridays the last EDUCATIONAL GROUP shuttle leaves at four p.m. This means that if you have a nine a.m. class, which I do, you have to be at the parking lot by 8:30a.m. to be on time. For some The Nation's Hottest Grad people, that may not pose a prob­ lem; however, for commuters like me who drive half an hour or more to get to school, that would mean Counseling Firm! leaving my house no later than eight a.m. Well, fine.
