Commuting
students are an integral part of Fisher College's student life. All events,
organizations, and clubs are open to commuters. The Division
of Co-Curricular Life strongly encourages these students to actively participate
in College activities and to make good use of all the services provided (e.g.
counseling, health services, etc.). To make their transition easier, the
College offers the following services:
Commuter Liaison
A Commuter Liaison is available to provide support to
commuter students and to help them navigate College life. The Commuter
Liaison advises the Commuter Student Association, which facilitates connections
between
commuters and gives commuter students a forum through which to express
their concerns. You may reach the Commuter Liaison at 617-670-4421 or stop
by
the office of the Vice-President of Co-Curricular Life on the Mall.
Transportation
Fisher College is easily accessible
by public transportation. We are located near the Arlington Street T-stop.
Subway, bus, and commuter rail discount passes are available from the Housing
Office. The deadline to sign up for a Spring 2008 Semester pass is January
8, 2008.
Parking
Parking is not available on College property; however, Beacon Street
and the surrounding areas do have metered parking on the street. Two large
parking garages are within walking distance.
Mailboxes
Each commuter student
is issued a Campus Mailbox located in the Mall area. Announcements, updates
and official correspondence from
the
College are put in the Mailboxes. Combinations are available at the
Office of Housing
and Residential Life 617-236-8828.
Lockers
Lockers are available from the Housing Office for $30 per year or $15 per
semester. There is a $10 additional charge if the locker key and lock are
not returned.
Students living off campus must file a local home address with the Registrar's Office upon arrival at the College and they should notify the Registrar's Office of changes in this information.
