Hi Everyone!!
There was a university that I remembered driving through my trip to Boston and I remembered that the campus was very big but the buildings were scattered all over the city. Is it Boston University or Boston College? Thanks

Boston University. The buildings are not scattered “all over the city” They extend along Commonwealth Avenue and parallel streets for two miles.

Is the campus divided at some parts though?

The BU Medical campus is in the South End.

Yes you are likely thinking about Boston University. It is in the middle of the city, buildings are somewhat scattered, and there is a road dividing the middle of campus. Boston College on the other hand is very hilly, contains very old church like buildings, and has a smaller enclosed campus.
