What if the University were to include free ( or reduced price) car rentals for each student and offered free bus rides to Boise, Twin Falls, Portland, and Seattle, (and cities in between during vacation times), to students that elected not to bring a car to the University, which is unneeded for most on campus living students.<br> <br> If a student could rent a car from the UI for the day, or a few hours once in a while, they might elect to do that instead of bringing a car that eats at their wallet when they really don't need one most the time. It would also free up parking spaces on campus and downtown. <br> <br> Just an idea.<br> <br> Best,<br> <br> _DJA <br> <br> <br><br><b><i>Art Deco <deco@moscow.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> When I was a student here in 58-62 and 66-69, students were actively <br>discouraged from bringing vehicles to the
