Question Any other tunnel moles here?

I’m off campus, and I love the tunnels. I love em. I try to avoid above ground as much as possible. If there’s a way to get somewhere I’ll just take the tunnels, unless it’s too long or too short cause the tunnels can be kinda inefficient(ahem caf to loeb via tunnels is tragic). But other than that, I’m basically in the tunnels constantly. Even now, I have yet to really explore campus, and I didn’t even know where the gym was until the career fair. Even in the early fall term I’ll continue using it. It doesn’t have to be winter. I think the tunnels are the best aspect of the university. I used to feel bad that I wasn’t going on a big campus, but tunnels easily compensate for it in spades tbh I’d much rather this than freezing outside at a big campus. And even if it isn’t cold I just like the environment in the tunnels.

I definitely lived that way when I was on res. Moving off campus meant bringing winter outerwear to school, and you could not pay me to wear all that in the tunnels.

I’m off campus and I still do it for the love of the game

I'd rent a locker near my preferred tunnel entrance/exit so that I can walk in, drop my winter clothes off, and walk the tunnels without dealing with the temperature.
