Yeah...this gas shit is really starting to hurt, probably should've just lived on campus...

take classes online?

2. I'm living on campus,
and am going home for Labor Day. I have enough gas to get home, but I'll definitely have to fill up again when I go back. Luckily, St. Louis gas is relatively cheap ($3), so it won't hurt as bad as someplace like Atlanta, but still...:shrug:

3. I don't know, Pitt as most unis tends to rip off dorm dwellers
Where do you live and how far do you need to drive. Maybe a bus or carpool could work

4. How far away do you live?
I live about 5-6 miles away, so I can easily bike it.

5. I live on campus
but I'm forced to drive to a local high school every day as a requirement of my major. My roommate and I (we are both in the same boat) are both going to raise hell with our professor tomorrow because we don't get any kind of gas re-imbursments...and with the long hours we work at the high school coupled with classes, there is no way any of us could hold down a job as well
