The Safe Ride Committee has approached area car dealerships about donating vans for this purpose, Armstrong said. The program may be eligible for a State Highway Department grant to purchase the vans, but only if university administration supports the program, Armstrong said. The Safe Ride Committee is working to address the new structure of the program and to find ways to finance it and ways to make it benefit the university and the city. In the past, Safe Ride founders have graduated and moved on. Armstrong said he is committed to the program and will continue to fight for it even after his upcoming graduation.
