UM carpool plan can help students save - Timberly Moore, Daily Helmsman

In order to combat rising gas prices, The University of Memphis Adult and Commuter Student Services wants to assist students in cutting their fuel costs. ACSS has implemented a carpool channel on MyMemphis, which allows students to match schedules with other students who live near them and split gas costs. "If you drive, you have to get gas and I know the students are feeling the pinch," said Heather Hampton, office coordinator for ACSS.
