Do you have access to a typewriter?  Do you ever miss the sound of typing on a typewriter?

We are looking for functioning typewriters to use for a MLK Week event on January 28 titled "Type or Tweet".  The event is designed to commemorate the civil rights struggles of the 1960s while celebrating our progress as a society.  Students will have the opportunity to express themselves using words, much like MLK, Jr. did in his letter from Birmingham Jail.  This event will allow students to utilize old and new forms of letter-writing and communication.  The event will span generations, from typewriters to twitter accounts.

Due to consistently low utilization on campus, starting on December 23rd, Egbert, the Ithaca Carshare vehicle for South Hill, will be removed permanently from the Ithaca College campus. Egbert will be relocated to the corner of Hudson and Columbia Streets, conveniently located right along TCAT Route 11 service to/from campus.

Ithaca College and Ithaca Carshare both hope that this relocation will better support the needs of Ithaca College students living on South Hill, and having the Ithaca Carshare service linked to TCAT Route 11 means that Egbert is still only a short bus ride away from campus users. 

New to Ithaca Carshare? Use promo code "South Hill" during January to get a free membership application!
