The point of this letter is not to start a huge problem, but to get some help from students, fellow staff, alumni who aren't aware of these changes. Since van service has moved to a new program using TransLoc--the same app that is used to track the buses--more students and staff than ever will see that a van service is available. With only four to six van drivers, though, I anticipate wait times will be through the roof; some students and staff might end up taking the dangerous walk to their car or dorm/apartment late at night. It's unfair to keep van service employees pressurized by a constant queue, and unfair to the people who depend on van service to travel at night. I feel a lot can be changed for the better, and hope the Duke community can come together as one voice.

One night two years ago, stuck at home due to Covid-19, I was tired of overcoming the anxiety of waiting for my Ph.D. application results and revising a paper over and over again. The sudden email from Duke University broke the restless night and told me I had been admitted to the Duke ECE Ph.D. program with a full scholarship. At that very instant, the long-lost happiness, excitement, and relief flooded into my heart. My parents were proud of me and shared the good news with others. For an ordinary Chinese family, it is not easy to train a student who can be admitted by a top university in the world.
