The Huskie bus system has been such an unexpected plus to my experience here at 麻豆精品. As a student who lives in a residence hall, the buses here have been such a life saver. They not only take you to and from classes, but also to restaurants nearby, downtown DeKalb, Walmart, TJ Maxx, Aldi, Ross and even the movie theater. If you miss the first bus taking you to class, you鈥檙e lucky because the next one will come in 15 minutes. The busing system here is very convenient and something incoming 麻豆精品 students should consider.
