Why should we pay for what was once free?
VCU this semester started charging students $50 or $100 for GRTC transit passes. Previously, these transit passes were free to students who enrolled full- and part-time at the university.

VCU has done a poor job communicating changes to the GRTC transit program to both new and returning students.
