Boston has a pretty good public transit system--at least until it snows when things tend to go to hell. It has its share of problems in general but it's not bad overall.

And it could grow quite a bit to absorb all the school traffic.

Someone above said ~25$/student/day: sure that's higher than the average commuter fare right now. Couldn't a unified system serve everyone better?

And encourage students to spend at least a bit of the day not locked into an institution designed around them.
