Abstract
This research examines the influence of the commute conditions on the campus involvement of undergraduate students at SFU. The intent of the research is to determine how student involvement can be hindered by transportation disadvantages and the different factors that lead to these transport disadvantages, which is defined as factors that leave areas with limited or no access to public transport by comparing the distribution of services to the location of individuals involved (Murray & Davis, 2001). The research identifies factors that affect student commutes that have influenced and shaped their involvement patterns on campus. Understanding these factors and the relationships between them will help post-secondary institutions to have more targeted resources and programs for different students. Additionally, this research helps assist municipal and transportation planners to better understand the importance of affordable housing and transport infrastructure around education institutions.
