“Sustainability is one of our Department’s, and the University’s, core values,” said PATS Director Clovis Acosta. “We are really proud of the way that the community has worked together to provide this program for students. Free public transportation for students is one way that we all show commitment to student success and environmental sustainability.”
Every UNM student is eligible to benefit from this program. In order to prove student status, students need to bring a copy of their class schedule indicating enrollment, and their Lobo Card, to any of the following outlets on campus: the Student Union Building, UNM Bookstore, residence hall housing officers or at the UNM Parking and Transportation Department office.
