Move LA is helping organize students around opportunities to win discounted transit passes at LA Metro and in the state Legislature. Toward that end we are hosting a Student Transit Pass Summit at LA Trade Tech in downtown LA next Friday the 13th (!) from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Could you help get this message out to students? We have contacts with student leadership at community colleges but need help reaching out to state universities and UCLA!
