Carpooling to North Dakota State University Survey Results

North Dakota State University (NDSU) has experienced tremendous growth over the past couple of years. This growth has resulted in some overcrowding, particularly in parking lots. We have sought out ways to better serve the campus by incorporating more public transportation. Yet public transportation may not work for everyone, so we are considering additional transportation alternatives. A brief questionnaire was designed to gain student and faculty perspectives on carpooling. Carpooling is when two or more people ride together to reach a common destination, in this case, NDSU. Carpooling helps reduce the demand for parking spaces and relieve some of the congestion on and around campus. The survey was developed for the internet and emailed to all NDSU students and faculty/staff. A message accompanied the survey explaining the setup and the objective of the survey. The response rate included 801 student and 278 faculty/staff responses. All responses were considered when developing the survey results. Survey results are discussed in the following report. The two sections that comprise this report are, 1) student perceptions regarding carpooling, and 2) faculty perceptions regarding carpooling.
