More and more students are becoming commuter students. While students save money by not living on campus, they spent in some cases much more money on gas and rent. This article looks at how commuter students are on the rise continually. Specifically, this article looks at the years 1960-1980. I dont know how much of this I will use as it isnt totally up to date. But, there are some good points Im sure Ill end up using.

Donovan, Brooke F. "Save The Commuters, Save The World!." Campus Activities Programming 42.8 (2010): 20-22. Education Research Complete. Web. 17 Mar. 2013. Brooke Donavans article talks about how there is a huge growth in commuter students and how its more difficult to be a commuter student than to live on campus. The article goes into detail about how there needs to be specified counselors for commuter students. It also talks about how schools should start creating programs specifically designed for

Kerr 2 commuter students so they can branch out more and meet other students and even other commuter students who go through the same struggles. Ill use this article for mostly the programming ideas about how commuter students can meet more of similar commuter students.

Commuter students deal with a lot of different issues compared to non-commuter students. They have to budget for more gas money as well as time. The average commuter students spends about a half hour each direction. This author samples all kinds of different students from freshmen to grad students. I will use this article for a lot of statistics and facts. They seem to be a good source as the data was taken from a large group of different people.

This article is interesting because it takes a different approach on how they look at data of

Kerr 3 the commuter students. They compare a lot of different type of students such as student athletes, and students on scholarships and what-not. Again, they have a bunch of good data and statistics I will end up using for my research paper.

John Zubizaretta, et al. "Building A Vibrant Honors Community Among Commuter Students." Journal Of The National Collegiate Honors Council 13.2 (2012): 197218. Education Research Complete. Web. 17 Mar. 2013. This article looks into a lot of the modern challenges of the commuter student and the possibility of building an honors community around just commuter students. It breaks down some of the challenges in getting good grades while being a commuter, such as making every class on time when traffic could be an issue. Some of the characteristics they talked about as far as commuter students in the honors communities included having a network of frequent contacts, having highly motivated and passionate students, and having a sense of the community. The main reason Ill use this article in my paper is for all of the characteristics of commuting students in honors communities. Like I said it talks about how the commute itself affects grades and what characteristics are needed to get the good grades.
