The addition of graduate students to the Transit Windsor bus pass will reduce its cost to $66 per semester, starting in fall 2016.

In a referendum conducted Monday and Tuesday, members of the Graduate Student Society voted 74 percent in favour of the proposal, which will see UWindsor students receive passes at a reduced rate paid through their student fees.

The transit company has pledged that approval of the U-Pass will mean improvements in its service to campus. Full-time undergraduates approved the measure during general elections for the University of Windsor Students’ Alliance last month.
