UIUC/CUMTD for faculty and staff commuting
Associated Project(s):
Hello Sarthak!
Our VC for administrative has asked me to compile examples of University-subsidized public transit for faculty and staff commuting. I’m familiar with UIUC’s free transit for students, faculty, and staff. I believe students pay a fee each semester, and transit is a free benefit for faculty and staff.
Is there a formal agreement in place between CUMTD and UIUC I can reference, or a budgeting policy? I’m specifically interested in any costs to UIUC and whether that expense funded entirely from the student fee or subsidized elsewhere in the budget.
This is somewhat time sensitive, let me know if you have time for a quick call this afternoon or Monday.
Best,
Matt Rundquist

Hi Stacey,
For UIUC faculty and staff, there is a department that funds for the MTD bus pass, right? Could you please confirm? Thank you,
