The Scooter at Mercersburg
With five or so scooters viable on campus, I think it is time someone made some positive comments about them. While I would never contend with the idea that Mercersburg's campus is primarily pedestrian--for it is so and has been designed that way--I would say that the scooter is a delightful vehicle to use, when one is inclined to use a vehicle. First and foremost, in its green little way, the scooter can go about 80 miles to the gallon. When mine was brand new, I could score about 100 miles to the gallon. Cars, almost any car, is a guzzler in that light. Parking, of course, comes much easier with less need for space. Parking lots become less crucial.
