<p>A word of warning about location… D has a freshman friend who resides in Harrington on East Campus. She brought her car her campus the first time after spring break. The closest parking spot? The stadium! D says her friend used it once to drive them to the mall, and they had to walk the 20+ minutes each way to the stadium. IMO the bus would have made more sense. Agree with other postings that a car is almost always not necessary, and is probably in most cases an unmerited expense.</p>
