<p>What is the difference between North and South Campuses housing-wise?</p>
<p>I have experience living in both but to be honest, I don’t notice much of a difference. Maybe south campus peeps are a little fuzzier?</p>
<p>South campus is much closer to downtown Evanston and quieter than North campus. North campus is where most of the frat houses and parties are.</p>
<p>It depends on a lot of factors. Firstly, most math/science oriented classes are located on north campus, while most liberal artsy classes are located on south campus. So if you know one of those will be a focus for you, it can’t hurt to reduce your transit time, especially when it’s really cold out–winter quarter can be a bear.</p>
<p>It’s also true that north campus tends to be more active at night due to the frats being located there, along with certain “party” dorms. South campus is quieter and slower.</p>
<p>Personally, I live on south campus and I have almost all of my classes down here. That said, some of my suitemates have most of their classes up north and they’re able to make the trek (buying a bike helps). I also really like that I can go north to party if I feel like it but I can always come back south to a dorm where it’s quiet enough to get to sleep (eventually…:P).</p>
<p>Hope that helps.</p>
