A University of Massachusetts Amherst student was rushed the hospital after being hit by a car on-campus while walking back to her dorm from the sports fields.

The spokesperson for the university said Allison Ingraham was in a crosswalk on Commonwealth Avenue between the Mullins Center and the new recreation center when a car struck her.

Ingraham suffered moderate injuries. She was treated at Cooley Dickinson then sent home.

She is a member of the marching band and was walking from practice when she was hit.

although your right people need to drive with more caution.MOST of these students cross the street with out looking.sure they have the right of way but not everyone going to stop. so it takes attention from both parties.
