HA.

I don't know why anyone would ever bring a car to Barnard. If New York's public transportation system is so amazing (and cheap), its parking is horrendous: good luck finding a parking spot (and then having to deal with NY's ridiculous parking rules and loop-holes). If you want to keep your car in a garage, get ready to shell out hundreds of dollars a month. All in all, there is absolutely no need to bring a car.
