Opinion: My train is not your billboard | The Niner Times

UNC Charlotte's commuter students and light rail users know the feeling all too well. After a long day of classes and studying for finals, cramming in a meal or a club meeting, it is time to make the next train home on the LYNX Blue Line. But to your dismay, as the train comes screeching into the UNC Charlotte Main Station, you see the front car wrapped in an oversized advertisement for Crown Royal, the Panthers or even UNC Charlotte. These advertisements are overbearing and ineffective and should be removed from the primary transportation of thousands of Charlottenians.
