I used it yesterday. LOL
As long as you're on campus I don't think you'll have a problem using it, but have a bus ticket or $2.55 on you just in case.

Yeah, a lot of bus drivers don't seem to know but definitively bring change just in case.

Reda, it's only valid from September 1 - April 30 so if you try and use it on a date that's not part of the regular school year the bus driver can stop you and in that case you'll need to pay the fare.

Sometimes if it's a couple days before September 1st or a couple days after April 30th they don't mind or don't really catch on to the fact that you shouldn't be using your bus pass.
