Boston University (BU) Campus

BU has some impressive stats, between its size and professional qualities.

Let me tell you about winter! It gets mighty cold!

Boston University's fitness and recreation center is a state of the art facility. At FitRec, you can run on the indoor track, play a game of basketball, squash, or badminton, swim laps in the competition pool, or rock climb on the rock wall.

Here is BU's gym! Let me show you around.

Hey! The BOOTH is a theatre that opened up last year on campus. It is an AMAZING facility and I'm gonna show you around it.

Mugar library is located in the George Sherman Union. You can find people studying and hanging out at Mugar at all times of day.

Twice a week students in the school of theatre take a dramatic literature class. It is an extremely informative class that surveys theatre history. We read dozens of plays from all over the world and discuss their importance and how they shaped today's world. We perform, write essays, create our own theatre in this class. I captured some of the craziness of before class and a quick talk with my teacher Kristen.

Located in the center of CAS, the Tsai Performance Center is a concert hall where students can attend concerts, lectures, plays, dance performances, etc.

My friends and I love going into the city at night -- this weekend, went to the North End, a hub for Italian Food, and got some famous Mike's Pastry cannoli.

Check out one of BU's main quads where you can often find students organizing.

Every college student has a different schedule everyday; this is a typical Thursday schedule for me, starting with classes and ending the day with my job. I scheduled my classes so that I had 2 lectures each day; I also prefer to have morning lectures so that I can do other things, like work, in the afternoon and evening.

Painting the rock is one of BU's longstanding traditions. Members of Greek life at BU spray paint their letters on the rock as a symbol of pride. The paint on the rock is always changing; if you visit it in the morning and at night chances are the rock will be entirely different! Some say that the rock was once small, but the layers of paint have made it grow in size over the years.

BU is located in the city of Boston and stretches over a mile down Commonwealth Avenue. Depending where you live on campus, commuting to class can take anywhere from 60 seconds to 35 minutes. BU is integrated in the city making everything that Boston has to offer right at a BU student's fingertips.

Part of my morning routine involves grabbing a bite before class/work and barely getting there on time. Thankfully, I live only a 3-5 minute walk from work.

West is popular because of its many shopping and dining options. On your walk to and from class you'll see Chipotle, Canes, Target, CVS, and more.

West Campus is home to multiple residence halls, Nickerson Field, Agganis Arena, and the Boston University Fitness and Recreation Center. West has one dining hall for students, Rhetts: a cafe that accepts dining points, and City Convenience which accepts convenience points. West Campus is home to many freshmen and athletes.

Welcome to a tour of my house! Also I give a little info about what living off campus is like!

Meet your tour guide who is so crazy stupid excited to take you around campus and show you how amazing Boston University is!

Baystate Road is the most beautiful part of our campus -- a residential street, it sits between Commonwealth Avenue and the Charles River for great views on all sides.

Here you'll find a gym, swimming pool, track, tennis, and much more 

There's a ton of food places to eat on campus. But beware of Basho Express -- cheap sushi is almost guaranteed to give you food poisoning! There's a ton more food off campus in Allston that I didn't mention, too. Most places don't accept dining points, but a few do, like the both Starbucks locations in GSU & Questrom School of Business and Buick Street Market by StuVi1. And UBurger by Kenmore Square has student deals every day!
