The concern is only with student cars. So just permit to a distance which will make it impractical for students to bring cars. Say a mile around the campus? I understand there isn’t an issue with residential/non-student cars, so why would any large scale number of these now be displaced? Maybe a...
Even if it’s not converted back I’d have thought long term residents will be better than the more transient nature of students?

I like all these alternative economics. I do wonder where the economic world will be in 10, 20, 30 plus year’s time. There are a number of crowd funding models out there now which have been hugely successful from small scale local to billion dollar international companies. And then there’s...
