The Uber-like campus car service fooled a few hoping long waits for South Campus buses were a thing of the past.
OK, the jig is up.
This morning The NewsHouse published a story which detailed a slick, new, app-driven car service which was set to replace the university shuttle busses which we all know and love. Unfortunately, while the thought of never again having to wait in Syracuse's sub-zero temperatures for a bus to class is a rosy thought -- it is not a true one.
So, in the spirit of belated transparency, here is how the SUber story came to be:
Don’t feel like waiting for a South Campus bus? Need to make a last minute trip to the mall for a big interview tomorrow? Feeling lazy –- or just plain cold -– and don’t feel like falling victim to central New York’s winter elements?
Say goodbye to buses, and hello to “allow me to get the door for you.”
