I went to a university in a rural area, they invested in local bus services to make it free for students. It was cheaper than building more parking anyways

This is such a bad excuse for subsidizing rich kids who got free cars from their parents. I used to live in a rural town in the US and the local college had usable bike paths AND decent access to bus routes.
Ironically it wasn’t until I moved to a city five times the size that I was having 1+ hour bus trips to get across town.
Accessibility is 100% a choice by the local government and university admins.
