Summer bus passes now on sale for faculty and staff

Faculty and staff bus passes for summer quarter are now on sale. The $40 passes will be valid for use beginning June 18.

There are several ways that eligible employees can purchase a bus pass:

Payroll Deduction: If eligible for payroll deduction, employees can submit a "Viking Xpress Bus Pass Payroll Authorization" esign form. Passes will be mailed to the employee's campus mailstop.
