WashU students, faculty and staff are invited to break out their U-Passes September 20th to compete in the annual College Transit Challenge, an annual celebration of public transportation sponsored by Citizens for Modern Transit.
Riders are invited to take MetroLink or MetroBus to the Mascot Meetup Kickoff Event at 9 a.m. Sept. 20 at Cortex Commons at the Cortex MetroLink Station. From there, the WashU Bear, along with mascots from St. Louis Community College, Saint Louis University, Southwestern Illinois College and the University of Missouri–St. Louis, will ride to Busch Stadium with students and other participants for a chance to win tickets for that evening’s St. Louis Cardinals game against the Cleveland Guardians.
The university that logs the most Metro trips throughout September 20th will win bragging rights and the College Transit Challenge Trophy.
