Is your school open or closed to the public?

Is your school open or closed to the public? Some schools are completely open, others make you show your ID upon entering every building. Also mention what school you go to.

Thanks.

VT is open campus, but to get into the residence halls you have to swipe your ID.

I'm pretty sure you can walk on the campus at [almost?] every school. I am equally pretty sure that all residence buildings require some type of school ID to get in.

well I like to take classes for free sometimes. Some schools have ID checks at nearly every building, others don't. Im interested in nyc and Boston schools also.

and the username is "member". Don't want to be nasty, but, just saying...

:P

And OP, you're scouting which schools to take "free classes" from? Haha that's hilarious.

You can cross NYU off your list, OP. Unless of course you want to partake in the shabbat dinner. That costs some dough.
