Which residence hall? Why??

<p>Also, I’ll just leave this here [Campus</a> living, dorm by dorm - The Daily of the University of Washington](<a href=“http://dailyuw.com/2009/5/13/campus-living-dorm-dorm/]Campus”>http://dailyuw.com/2009/5/13/campus-living-dorm-dorm/)</p>

<p>To the person who asked about engineering, there’s both an honors and engineering floor in McCarty if I’m not mistaken. To be sure, maybe spaceneedle can answer that, I think he lives there. However, if you want a general idea of where the engineering buildings are, take a look at the map I posted below, all of the engineering buildings are oriented to the right of Drumheller fountain (the light blue circle). I believe Mech. E, Civil E, Chem E, and Electrical E. are clustered to the right. That means that they’re equally as far away from Mercer and Stevens (the crappy dorms) and Mccarty, McMahon and Haggett, so really it just depends on which dorm you prefer, there’s no real advantage, in terms of distance, between any of the dorms and the Eng. buildings.</p>

<p>To the person wondering about Bio, your classes will probably be in Hitchcock later in the major. Earlier classes will most likely be in Kane or somewhere closer to campus. You probably have access to one of the UW maps on washington.edu, but if you don’t, here’s one, with the dorms and Hitchcock highlighted. Hitchcock is at the ass-end of campus, and in this case, mercer and steven’s court are the closest dorms. McMahon, Mccarty and Haggett are in the upper right hand corner, and probably about a 20-25 minute walk away. If you’re absolutely sure you wanna do Biology, then those are the dorms. Although your first year, it most likely will not matter as you’ll be stuck taking Gen Eds. and pre-reqs, which are usually taught in Kane, in the middle of campus. Maybe your second year too, depending on how you decide to tackle the major.</p>
