Bus service to LI commencement for St. Joseph's-Brooklyn students
St. Joseph’s University students in Brooklyn won’t have to worry about travel arrangements for Tuesday’s commencement on Long Island amid the ongoing LIRR strike.
The ceremony is to be held at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale. David Gonzalez, the university's assistant vice president for student life on the Brooklyn Campus, said in an email the college is offering "complimentary charter bus service that will depart from our Brooklyn Campus to assist graduates and guests/families potentially impacted by suspended LIRR service."
Gonzalez said Long Island students have not expressed any concerns regarding transportation.
