GSU COMMUTERS

[CSquared]

Well i was accepted to Georgia State for the fall 2006 semester as a transfer student from Georgia Perimeter. I went to the campus today to check it out and left saying something along the lines of, "fuck that... there is no way i am bringing my car here, nevermind paying 4 dollars a day for parking."

I'm coming from the Lilburn/Stone mountain area, so I figured i'd check out the marta commute. The closest station to me is Indian Creek... So most likely I am going to do a park and ride type thing(on the train). Here are my questions:

Anyone have experience with commuting to GSU on the marta train system?

Anyone have experience commuting from indian creek in particular?

Is the Indian creek station in a decent area? My car(supra) is probably going to be there about 8 hours a day/night.

I noticed they have a deal where you can get unlimited access to marta for $26 a month as a student... I assume that includes bus AND train?

Is it a reliable source of transportation as far as timing goes? The marta website says a train arrives every 15 min and it takes about 20 min to get from my station to the "campus"... can i hold them to that?

Feel free to add any other commuting experience/advice you may have... I read the other posts on GSU issues, but I could care less about that crap... Keep on topic.
