Chat list set up for Adair SCC students to share rides

Individual students can use chat room to find out who has similar schedules, at Somerset Community College, to help form gas saving carpools

By D.W. Swanner

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AdairGasSaversToSCC

This group is for the people of Adair County who attend Somerset Community College to find carpooling partners to school. In this day and age of higher fuel prices sharing a ride may mean the difference of gaining a degree or dropping out.

The moderator of the group does not assign people to carpools, but allows free discussion on the chat list for people with like schedules to come up with plans to either carpool or form some other means of transportation to SCC, any campus.



It was reported here in an article that eighteen Adair County residents made the deans list, so it doesn't take rocket science to figure that there are other students along with the dean's list students.

The moderator will monitor the group for abuse. Please do no post spam, chain mail, etc. into the chat list. A little humor will be tolerated, but please refrain from posting forwarded email humor.

Basically, folks, this is an experiment that I hope works to help us in our attempt to further our education. This "experiment" will be as complicated or simple as we make it.

Please be polite, use common sense and remember, this is not Topix. You must be approved to join the list and you can be removed.

Approval will given to anyone requesting access, removal will result from bad behavior.

Good Luck.
