I am a third year at the University of Maine in Orono. I have been dealing with the uncontrolled chaos that takes place on the campus Monday-Friday during the school year since I was a freshman. Pedestrians, bikers, skateboarders, longboarders, scooterers, and drivers are mixed into one massive jumble on the campus streets of UMaine. Along with my fellow classmates, I insist that there be bike lanes introduced along every road of campus. Pedestrians can use the sidewalk, bikers can have their own lane, drivers get the road, and boarders can do whatever they please. These actions would ensure the safety of everybody. ~ Jackson Reynolds, Orono
