Isn't the purpose of MADD to prevent people from getting behind the wheel drunk?
I know when I was at FAU I would have been all for this shuttle. It's funny when a group starts out-stepping their original purpose. FAU finds a way to help prevent drunk driving and MADD's response is well that encourages drinking, instead of commending FAU for their efforts in preventing students from getting behind the wheel drunk.

They haven't done this poor a job of reporting since the original Jesus Stomp article.
My concern is that, despite the poor journalism, by driving traffic to the site and complaing about it, does that encourage them to do more articles like this? Perhaps they think they must be onto something if there's pushback.

What's the end goal… does WPEC want FAU to cancel the shuttle? Why? Are they concerned that this shuttle will cause blackout drunk college students to be slumped over sidewalks in Boca? I mean come on.Posted On: Feb 28th 2015, 12:16 PM #342895
Then FAU will get bad press about not controlling their students. This shuttle is a good thing because it makes sure students get to and from their destination safely.
