Despite a "Dying to Get There" marketing campaign launched in August by Valley Metro designed to discourage reckless pursuit of light-rail trains -- which typically spend only seconds at a station stop before pulling away -- many students find themselves still rushing to catch trains to ensure they won’t be late for class. The campaign urges light-rail riders through social-media alerts, signs and automated announcements not to run to catch trains.
McClatchy-Tribune News Service, a news service that distributes media to 1,200 clients worldwide, has made an agreement with ASU to distribute Cronkite News Service content, a partnership that is adding national exposure for students working for the school's wire service.
