Doheny Commuter Services
Commuter students are an active and important part of the Mount community. Programs and services offered through our office are available to all full-time traditional undergraduate students. The following information is provided to keep commuter students informed of services and activities on campus:
Commuter Mentor Program (CMP): The Commuter Mentor Program is designed to aid first-year commuter students socially and academically by having them establish a relationship with a mentor, who serves as a leader and resource that connects mentees to the various resources available on- and off-campus.
Computer Access: Computers with internet access are available in Building 3 and the Library.
Informational Bulletin Boards: Information regarding MSMU’s Commuter Services can be found on bulletin boards located on the first floor of Ahmanson Weingart Hall (Building 4), the second floor of Building 11 and on kiosks located throughout the campus.
Lockers: Lockers are available for commuter students at no charge. Students are able to use their locker for the entire academic year, and all items must be removed by the last day of the spring semester. Any items left in lockers after this deadline will be discarded. Please visit Student Programming and Commuter Services to sign up for a locker.
Meals: Commuter students can dine in a beautiful setting and save money by purchasing one of four meal plan options. Meal plans can be purchased by completing a commuter meal plan form at one of the cafes or at the Food Service office located on the second floor of Ahmanson Commons.
Meal Voucher Program: Commuter students experiencing economic hardship may apply for the Meal Voucher Program for free meals in the Café. Contact Student Programming and Commuter Services for more information.
Student Carpool: Students interested in arranging a carpool, may enroll in Zimride. For more information, contact the Parking and Transportation office.
Study/Gathering Areas: The campus offers a number of gathering and study areas for commuter students. The Student Lounge offers a comfortable atmosphere with couches, study tables, cable television, refrigerator and microwave as well as access to the Fitness Center. Other locations include the Student Lounge, Library, Ahmanson Commons (open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) and the 24-Hour Room (located next to the Library).
Transportation options: Commuter students may utilize the free intercampus shuttle that travels between the Doheny and Chalon campuses. For commuter students who rely on public transportation near Chalon, the Mount local shuttle service picks up students on Sunset Blvd. Students interested in arranging a carpool, may enroll in Zimride.
