<p>For a grad student living on campus, how easy/how necessary would it be to own a car?</p>
<p>It’s really not necessary to own a car if you live on campus, seeing as how IU and the city of Bloomington has a great bus line that is capable of taking you almost anywhere you need to go. The only time that a car would be useful is definitely on the weekends incase you wanted to go home and visit family,run errands,etc. Besides, if you wanted to park on campus you’d have to buy a parking pass,which is an added unneeded expense. Good luck in whatever you decide.</p>
