What's the campus like?

Marry the online tour map (Page Not Found | The University of Alabama) w/ any Google map (which has a 1" scale on it), and you can see it is fairly large - not clumped or crowded at all, IMO, but still a very manageable size to walk from one end to the other. Cohesive is a great word to use to describe it! (in other words, everything related to the campus, with the exception of athletics and law, which are south of campus) is within a cohesive network of streets and sidewalks.) Every res hall is easily walking distance to all classes…or you can take the Crimson Ride bus around. You can easily walk (or ride) to The Strip, downtown area, from the campus. From top res hall (Presidential) to the bottom class (Reese Phifer?), as the crow flies, is about .8 miles. It would take a good 20+ minutes to walk that, briskly. If you are in MDB or music, Moody Music Bld is another far point on the south-east side of campus.
