<p>what's the deal with the dining halls at Snell and Max P...how near are they to the dorms and how easy is it to get to them</p>
<p>They both eat at Bartlett. It's closer to Max P than Snell/Hitchock. It's on the same quad as Max P., so it's about a 60 second walk from the dorm to the dining hall. Snell's probalby a couple of minutes' walk.</p>
<p>Ok this might be a stupid question, but does Bartlett look as cool as the B-J dining hall?</p>
<p>In my opinion - no. It has it's own charm but its much bigger latent gymnasium feel doesn't compare.</p>
<p>Its menu and food service style is also different. One may want to sample each.</p>
<p>Barlett has one thing (besides better food) that neither Pierce nor B-J have: A large seal over the entrance to the lobby that dedicates the building "For the Glory of Manly Sports."</p>
<p>bartlett is one of the greatest things about this university in so many ways. b-j dining hall is also way overrated. the food is not too good, its really expensive for those not on their meal plan (although this is really just a personal beef, and obviously doesnt affect those who eat there), and its pretty small.</p>
<p>I'm a Bartlett fan, myself. The food's significantly better than at the other dining halls, and there's really no beating the entry sign Maroon mentioned: To the advancement of Physical Education and the Glory of Manly Sports.</p>
<p>I realized that chicago was proud of bartlett when they ushered all the prospective students there- not letting nyone eat at the other dining halls.</p>
<p>My S must be in the minority, he prefers BJ dining over Bartlett.</p>
<p>Sooooooo........another stupid question. Is the inside courtyard of B-J as cool looking as the outside?</p>
