Metro is not ‘almost’ on the light rail. There are two light rail stops on campus. Passes for light rail, and all city buses) are included in student fees for all colleges in the metro area (Metro, CU Denver and Boulder, DU, all the community colleges). There is a light rail stop at DU too.
Starting April 22, you can take light rail to the airport. Not that we’re counting or anything… Light rail is wonderful.
