SDSU students build schedules off of transit system

      These students have to shape their schedules around the transportation system, to ensure they leave on time to catch the bus/trolley. These students also have to rely on this means of transport outside of SDSU from hanging with friends, work, and groceries. The site from SDSU, Trolley system information  provides bus routes that take you around San Diego, and gives information on what bus or trolley to take. A SDSU friend of mine, has been relying on this information since the first semester of Fall 2025, as he has to take the trolley to get by in San Diego. I view having to wake up every morning to take the trolley as inconvenient because for myself, I had my parents willing to take me to school some days of the week. However, for a student like my friend who could not rely on his parents, only knows the San Diego transportation system and occasionally catching a ride from a friend. Therefore to my friend, relying on the transit system has become necessary to his everyday life. The trolley allows him to pursue his education and go to work, and through this he has learned to adapt to the long rides by having time to himself, or doing homework on the trolley.
