Goucher Partners with Zipcar |
|
MICUA Matters
Fall 2008
Goucher College has launched a new partnership with Zipcar,
a cost-efficient, environmentally friendly car-sharing program. Goucher
students who are older than 18 and have a valid driver's license-as well as the
College's faculty and staff-will have 24/7 self-service access to two Honda
Civic Hybrids that are located in a campus parking lot. Participants apply for
Zipcar membership online, and the $35 application fee counts as a credit. The
hourly rate is just $7, or $60 for a full day, and includes gas, maintenance,
insurance, reserved parking on campus, and roadside assistance.
Goucher's partnership with Zipcar marks another important
stride the College is making to ensure that environmental sustainability and
stewardship are a priority on campus. This alternative transportation
initiative complements the college's extensive recycling, composting,
sustainable food service, and energy conservation programs.
