Mural In the Bike Station

Getting a mural started on campus is way harder than I had ever expected. The most difficult thing about the process is getting in contact with important people and making sure your partners are committed. Recently, my muralist who designed the mural bailed on me and now I have to design the mural all by myself or find a new artist. This set me back so much! I am very nervous that I will barely finish this mural by the end of the semester. All I want to do is make a nice mural for the bike station to promote bike sharing on campus! I believe that if I can make this mural happen it will help the bike community on campus so much!

Biking on campus may not be the easiest form of transportation due to our campus' hillside landscape, but having bike is great for getting around lower campus and all of Eagle Rock. Once bike sharing increases on campus, people will realize how fun and useful it can be! It would be a lot fun to plan a biking trip to the grocery store or even the park. I feel like we need to educate the students about bike sharing and even educated the students about cool locations where they can bike to from campus. Many freshmen do not know anything about the area surrounding oxy, but if we show them it will spark an interest. Maybe this will be another project for the bike sharing club next semester.

Take it easy and make oxy greener.
