College Prowler Take

For the most part, students don’t have much to complain about as far as public transportation goes. They rely heavily on the Tiger Transit system that runs during the day and at night by call. However, most students still drive to destinations off campus.

Even though Auburn is a small town, a car is almost a necessity, especially if you are not from the town itself. Bikes are a popular choice for those students who do not own a car. The on-campus transit system is paid for by tuition, but unfortunately, the off-campus buses (LETA) require a fee in order to ride them.

Public transportation to campus is pretty reliable, but I never take it. The Tiger Transit routes take a long time, and you end up having to leave for class really early. The parking on campus sucks, though, so this is basically the only option.

Public transportation is readily available around town with Tiger Transit buses, security shuttles, and friends' cars. Walking is the best exercise and perfect because Auburn's campus has buildings located within ten minutes of each other.

Tiger Transit is pretty convenient and drops you right in front of the Haley Center, which is where most classes are. The Drunk Bus is also a really nice feature, and it runs every night.

Public transportation is really good. They have buses running all the time, and if you need a bus to pick you up late at night, then there’s a number you can call and they’ll come get you whenever you need them.
