Do you need or use a car in SDSU?

I’m asking current or previous SDSU students if you needed or are glad to have a car on campus. My D is going this fall and we are about 2 hr away from SDSU. Since she didn’t have her own car during high school, she asked me if I could help her out getting one for college.

My initial answer was no since she’ll be in dorm. But now I’m thinking back when I was in college and how that would’ve been nice and more convenient. Financially it doesn’t make sense obviously since we don’t have any hand me down car to give her. So I need to buy a used car or lease a small one. She’s been really good D through high school with no troubles at all so thoughts have crossed my mind that may be it’s ok for her to have a car.

Still not 100% sure though.

Any accepted students planning to take cars to SDSU? Obviously my biggest worry is safety, accidents, criminal targets, liability when taking other students for rides,… but I guess even many high school students go through that already…
