ISU’s Office of Sustainability is working with California-based Spin to launch the program, which will take place as part of the university’s annual Earth Day celebration.

"It will be a cheaper and more sustainable means of getting around than driving."

Indiana State is one of 30 campuses throughout the country, and the first in Indiana, to offer the Spin program.
