<p>Yes if you choose West Campus you will have a longer walk---more like 10-15 not 20 minutes as stated early. If its cold you just hop on the T and get there in less than 5. West is a little further than the dorms in the center of campus but it has a lot more green space and the 3 dorms overlooking the field and central dining area make it much more of a campus feel. The views are amazing...big windows with gorgeous views of the River and city skyline. Plus its nearer to the new Student Village area with the new arena and new rec. facilities. (Lazy River even)</p>
