One lonely bike awaiting refurbishing for EMUbikes. More to come this week!Still working on sustainable issues. Really not much has happened at the school, but there are some hopeful signs.
EMUbikes seems to be taking shape, and people are riding more bikes generally on campus. We need more bike racks! There is hope as students begin to find the way to sustainability.
We actually got some temporary space last week. the photo is of my bike holding down the fort until we can get transport to transfer the bikes in Jen's yard and at Ypsi police to the space. Then learning how to fix bikes. I have learned a little over the past few weeks, but a long way to go, and a lot to learn. It is hard when we have such limited time and funds. We might have some interested alumni funds, but first I have to make a business plan, and I just don't have that much spare time to first learn what a business plan is, and then to actually write it. But if you want something done, give it to a busy person.

Chris,
I am a recent Eastern graduate and am currently living in northern California, where I'm sure you know people take energy and the environment seriously. I am moving back to the Ypsilanti area next month and am wondering what the current situation is at EMU. Are the faculty/staff/regents interested in becoming an environmental steward for the community? Are there any special programs that students/faculty are taking part in? I would like to know and help my alma mater if possible. Thanks.
