I mean, this is Worcester county not city of Worcester. So could be up in Westminster or down in Paxton. None of those communities could feasibly be converted to walking only.

Historically I think they did stuff on rt 20 on the line to Shrewsbury last time they did one of these. I believe they also did 140 in sterling.

Durham as a company was the worst bussing experience every year I had to deal with them. Glad they got the boot really, not sure if WPS is best suited to do it themselves, but hope they did their diligence of in-house vs competitive bid.

It also seems there is significant wiggle room in the wording of the idle-reduction clauses at the federal and state level, so I suspect we'll see little to no material impact to the company.

As an alum- the campus has grown significantly but has maintained their reputation and I’ve had good luck hiring graduates to know their stuff still.

It is a hard school in so far as a higher than average burn out rate, you have plenty of room to fail. If you ask for help you will get it but they won’t chase you to make you get help.

Depends on what you need really. Each hospital has stuff they excel at. Major trauma? UMass by the lake. having a baby? UMass by the police station. Having specialist care? st. Vs. general ER? Probably St. V unless you can wait for a day in the waiting room if you wouldn’t be a priority case.
