5. Are all students allowed to use the P.E. facility?

All enrolled students have access to the P.E. Facility.

6. Regarding bus transportation, what is available for students on campus to go to town?

The city does provide bus service to the campus. You may contact Island Transit at 409-797-3900 for the schedule, or visit their website, http://www.islandtransit.net/.

Other than the city bus service, students are usually very adept at helping each other out.  Students looking for a ride are encouraged to check with a roommate or suitemate, or other friend.  If all else fails, a student may check with the Student Services Office to help coordinate a ride.
