Melanie Morris, the Assistant Director of Sustainability at Suffolk Community College has been working with 511NY Rideshare for the last five years. Through her partnership with 511NY Rideshare, she has been able to establish a comprehensive resource for students and faculty to improve their commutes. Melanie encourages other universities to do the same:

"511NY Rideshare has become a household name at Suffolk County Community College. Our students and staff are familiar with the team and seek them out for answers to all questions related to transportation. [The 511NY Rideshare Team] regularly attends campus events, provides continuous education, and reminds on how to reduce our environmental impacts.

SCCC is primarily a commuter campus, where single passenger vehicles are the predominant mode of transportation, making it difficult for students who do not own or operate a car to get to and from campus. 511NY Rideshare provides students a platform to come together and share rides to campus – helping us to ease traffic, and crowded parking lots and lower our GHG emissions.

There is no risk for an employer to partner with 511NY Rideshare - in our five years of working with them, Suffolk has had nothing but positive experiences. Students & Staff sign up for the program at their own leisure and can customize it to fit into their everyday schedules. They offer an affordable and environmentally friendly transportation option to students, faculty, and staff."

It is very important that through transportation, students regularly attend on-campus events such as classes and seminars that provide a continuum of learning. This helps create a sense of community on campus and provides opportunities to ask questions and get advice from faculty and staff. At https://writemyessay.nyc, we have taken a lot from student life, including the organization of classes and seminars, this also helps develop the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in the workplace.
