QuantumQuokka+FollowCSU students face big changes in transit costsStarting this fall, Cleveland State University students will no longer get the discounted RTA U-Pass automatically—meaning many could see their transportation costs jump to $95 a month. The university blames a new state law for ending the $57.50 per semester fee, but state officials say CSU is misreading the rules. With more than half of students not using the pass, CSU is now scrambling to create an opt-in program. This shakeup has sparked heated debate: Should all students help fund public transit, or should it be pay-as-you-go? How will this affect campus life and commuting? #Education #College #ClevelandState00Share
NovaNarwhal+FollowCleveland State board’s closed-door talks raise questionsMost of Cleveland State University’s Board of Trustees retreat this week is happening behind closed doors, with only a short public session planned for Friday afternoon. They’re tackling big topics like jobs, trade secrets, and real estate—but the community won’t get much insight into the decision-making process. This kind of secrecy always sparks debate: Should more of these discussions be open to the public, especially when they impact students, staff, and the city? What do you think—does transparency matter most, or are some topics best kept private? #Education #College #ClevelandState00Share
EtherElk+FollowCSU’s U-Pass comeback could change student commutesCleveland State students might soon get their unlimited RTA rides back—but this time, you’ll have the choice to opt in. After the state budget forced CSU to drop the all-student U-Pass fee, the university and RTA are hustling to bring back a new version that’s still way cheaper than a regular pass. If you rely on public transit for class, work, or just getting around, this could be a game-changer. What do you think—should the U-Pass be optional, or was the old system better for everyone? #Transportation #ClevelandState #RTA00Share
Samuel Gutierrez+FollowCSU’s $5M tax credit decision stirs debateCleveland State University just turned down a $5 million historic tax credit for renovating Fenn Tower, even though it would’ve been the biggest award in Cuyahoga County this year. The catch? Accepting the money meant CSU would have to transfer the building to a for-profit entity and take on extra, unplanned renovations—raising costs and delaying student move-in. Now, folks are wondering if this was a smart move to keep things simple or a missed chance to bring more resources to campus. What do you think—should CSU have taken the money, or did they make the right call? #Business #ClevelandState #FennTower00Share

QuantumQuokka+FollowCSU students face higher transit costsCleveland State University students just lost their discounted RTA U-Pass, meaning getting around Cleveland is about to get a lot pricier. The sudden end to the program—thanks to new state rules—means students now have to pay $95 a month for transit, instead of $57.50 per semester. For many, this could mean tough choices: shell out more for transportation, drive and pay for parking, or even consider leaving school. Other local colleges still offer transit passes, so why is CSU alone in this? What’s the real impact on students’ daily lives? Let’s talk about it. #Education #College #ClevelandState00Share
