A brief description of the program, including an indication of its scope (e.g., the number of bicycles the program makes available, participation levels, etc.):
The Green Bikes program was originally conceived in fall of 2005 as a community bicycle program. The goal of the program was to provide the Colgate and Hamilton community with inexpensive, convenient, human-powered transportation to decrease reliance on automobiles. Our current fleet consists of 15 bicycles that are rented to specific individuals on a semester basis. It promotes responsibility and accountability for the maintenance and usage of the bike. We also hold tune-up workshops to support all bicycle commuters on campus. The goal is to increase the program to 60 bicycles by 2015.
