"Students just shouldn't cross there, it's there own fault if they get nailed", never mind that if THAT many students are all crossing in the same place, it just might be a good place to put a crossing. -- no brainer (above) When I was a student at u of t (ahem, 23 years ago), crowds of us always took our lives in our hands crossing Queen's Park circle over to Hart House-- no crosswalk or lights there. It was the most direct route to get from Vic and ST. Mike's campuses over to some of the buildings on St. George, and we only had 10 minutes b/n classes. We used to get told off regularly for it, too. Last I saw, there wasn't any formal way set up for students to cross there, but they may have improved traffic control using the lights that precede that spot at Harbord-- anybody know if that's the case, or are they still just complaining about the youngsters?
