Months spent caught in the grips of assaults and student deaths have left many of us confused and wary as both our city and our campus are proving more and more dangerous to student safety. Friday morning’s sexual assault is yet another incident — and we hope it will be the last — in a series of attacks on students that has shaken us to the core.

Unsafe streets, unreliable public transit, unmanageable traffic concerns (trains...) — as students, traveling in Columbia can be a near-daily hurdle. Fortunately, USC has foregone getting involved directly — a blessing in disguise, we’re sure — and is allowing a private company to help with the situation. Hertz Rent-a-Car is recognizing the first anniversary of its Hertz on Demand program, a vehicle rental initiative aimed at supplying students with local transportation.

Since then, USC administration has been constructing a new ticketing process aimed at addressing student concerns once and for all.

These lots have become over the past few years the lifeline of most off-campus students. Garages are being pushed nearly to capacity, and the prices have become an insupportable burden on students' budgets. Furthermore, the lots themselves are already subject to traffic increases from special events to which Parking Services often replies with a shrug of the shoulders and "too bad."
