Here we go!
Where did the summer go? It feels like only yesterday we were packing up and heading home. Classes start a week from today!
Looking to get a ride to campus? RPI Parking and Transportation has free shuttles to campus if you register for them before the 26th. From their website:

To arrange transportation please contact the Parking and Transportation Department weekedays at 518-276-6616 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Word on the street is that those pesky parking meters along Sage and 15th are now only required between 8am-5pm M-F, with a new 4-hour maximum. They are being reprogrammed, and are having their signage changed to quell the confusion.
See! Your voice DOES matter!

Special Report: After the Storm — Snow removal at Stacwyck
RPI’s snow removal plan apparently doesn’t work so well in Stacwyck. Neither does their paving. Before seeing these pictures, you should know that Stacwyck parking lot was repaved this fall, but you couldn’t tell by looking at it.
This is a disgraceful display of incompetent work that directly affects the student body. Tell us what you think about this! (more photos below)

Classes begin next Monday, and you’re bound to be thinking about returning to campus.
Here’s some transportation info you may find helpful:
- Campus dorms open tomorrow (Friday Dec 9th) at noon.
- The CDTA Bus #86 resumes normal operations on Sunday.
- The Red Hawk Shuttle resumes normal service on Mon at 7 am, just in time to get you to that crack of dawn 8am class.
- If you have your car in a lot that you don’t have a permit for, be sure to remove it by 8am on Mon because that’s when normal campus parking rules go back into effect.
- If you are coming back to RPI via the Albany International Airport, Amtrak Train Station or Greyhound Bus Terminal there is a free shuttle available to get you to campus. Just call the Department of Parking & Transportation Services at 518-276-6616 or e-mail parking@rpi.edu to find out more.
