Shuttle

The Xavier Shuttle is sponsored by the Division of Student Life and Leadership and the Student Government Association and is managed by the Gallagher Student Center office. Its purpose is to provide Xavier students shuttle service between the university's campus and shopping centers. Before and after academic breaks, the shuttle provides transportation between the university's campus and the airport. The shuttles run on a fixed route. Xavier students must show their One Pass and non-students must be accompanied by a Xavier student. No alcohol is permitted on the shuttle.
