Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

MARTA (Metropolitan Atlanta Regional Transit Authority) is available from campus via multiple bus routes that incorporate campus streets, and rapid rail lines are reasonably accessible from campus. Bus routes from campus transport students to the Midtown (10th Street) and North Avenue rail stops, from which students can travel to Hartsfield International Airport, Lenox Mall, and an array of other locations. A rail map and schedule of bus routes is available at www.itsmarta.com.

Most students, though, don’t like to use the public transportation. Driving and bumming rides from friends are generally the preferred method of getting around, if you can manage it. But, if you need to use public transportation, it is there.
