Metrocard Hearing
Beyond Tech — By Andy Mai on March 3, 2010 at 9:59 pmOn March 3, 2010, the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) hosted a hearing at the Brooklyn Museum to hear the voices of New Yorkers and their communities who will be effected by service cuts and, just as important, student Metrocards. The New York City Student Union, represented by Lucas Johnson, Henry Pines and Rebecca Morofsky, voiced the students’ concerns to the MTA Executive Board.

These stories reflect what they will face if student Metrocards are cut.
