Over spring break, Assistant Dean of the College Paul J. McLoughlin II announced that the College had ended its two-month-long experiment in 24-hour shuttle service. Henceforth, the shuttle will no longer run between 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. (8 a.m. on weekends).

Still, the scaled back schedule leaves three to four early morning hours in which students have no transportation options available—short...
According to McLoughlin, an average of just 0.2 of riders took the shuttle each hour between 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. This low usage, combined with the $1500-per-hour-per-month cost of running the shuttle during those times, presented the College with an obvious choice. Although we expected 24-hour shuttle service on a pre-set schedule would ultimately prove impracticable, the College’s dedication to the experiment—indeed even its willingness to pursue the experiment—is laudable. At a time when student safety has become a major campus concern, Harvard should...
...demise of the expanded service should not, however, strand students far from their rooms in the wee hours. McLoughlin rightly notes that HUPD cruisers are available to transport students at any hour, but many students—for reasons which range from intoxication to timidity—are reluctant to ride in the back seat of a cruiser when they simply want to get from one side of campus to the other.
