Joey GPS: Nope, It Will NEVER Happen

Joey GPS: Nope, It Will NEVER Happen
Apparently, it takes more than a Tufts degree to stick a little sensor on the dashboard of an ailing bus. Who knew?

The first rumors of the alleged GPS tracking system would have launched the program back before the fall 2006 semester: a fabulously idealized venture that would solve the age-old question of "Wait or walk?" Now the system won’t be ready until the start of the fall 2007 semester by absolute earliest. The setback? Tufts' Senate can’t quite figure out how to get the single GPS unit to function on the multiple shuttles that run throughout the day. But oh, the quick solution of two, count 'em, two, tracking devices is too much to handle, apparently; despite our 1400+ average SAT scores, the administration is not confident that Tufts students can discern between two different Joeys.

Score one again for the Tufts higher-ups on the logistics side. And so we ask again, "Why do engineers get the jobs straight out of undergrad?" Man.
