Introducing: the Ole Bike Program
In the Spring of 2025, SGA, in partnership with the Environmental Coalition, worked to revive the Ole Bike Program, an initiative that existed on campus from 2010-2021. Located in Buntrock Commons, the Ole Bike Program was created to offer free access to bikes and expand students’ ability to travel to and throughout Northfield.
