McMaster to London, Ontario?
I was trying to figure out what would be the best way to get there and back? I don't think any GO buses go there, or any GO trains. Would Via be a good idea from Hamilton GO?

I realized, but I've only heard bad things about Greyhound in terms of reliability, so I'm not too sure about them. :(

I've only taken Greyhound once, and it was going from Mac to London. I didn't have any problems.

Oh, okay. That's somewhat assuring then.

Ah okay, thanks James. I'm assuming it arrived on time on campus as well for departure right?

I left from the GO station, but it left on time and we got to campus in about 10-15 minutes.

I've taken the Greyhound several times, although from Toronto to Ottawa, and I've never had a problem. I'd say they're pretty reliable.

Protip: Do NOT get on at mac, or you may end up standing or waiting for them to send an additional bus. Not worth the risk, when it only takes 20ish minutes to get to the GO Centre. The number of times I've watched people watch in dismay as the last few seats are filled up... yeah, sucked for them.
