Commuting students can be severely disadvantaged. They miss out on events and socializing opportunities, their energies are depleted from spending valuable time travelling that they could use to study, spend time with family, cook healthier meals, or simply rest.
Support should be provided not only for the financial cost but also stress and tiredness that comes with commuting.
Universities are beacons of morals, humanity and justice. The financial practices of such institutions should reflect the ethical principles they teach and preach. Students should be able to engage with their learning without needing to worry about where their money is going.
Students juggle with a multitude of identities, responsibilities, and commitments, but their student identity is often predominant. They can only reach their full potential in education if support is provided for all their needs, in all aspects of their life.
