When students go to a House formal at a club downtown, the subway and T buses stop running by 2 am. Proposals to extend T hours are an issue that students should voice their opinions on. Likewise MBTA General Manager Dan Grabauskas has proposed a 25 percent increase in the cost of a fare on the T. Although this issue is not solely relevant...
