After moving to the big city, I realized just how good the bus system at UofI is. Back in the day we just waited until the bus came, but now they have those digital boards that tell you how long it will be unti the next bus comes - awesome! The buses are always clean, there's hardly ever smelly homeless people on there. And they are a blast when the bars close! Multiple bus lines and lots of stops, if you live on campus you are never more than 2-3 blocks from a bus. Just don't make the mistake of getting on the wrong bus and having to ride for an extra 30 min because you got on the wrong way :) Also, it's nice that even the off-campus buses are free for students.
