They're the same building, for some reason the University can't decide if its a centre or a building.

Just in case you don't believe me, this map has both names on it for the same building, ITB in the alphabetical listing and ITC in the numerical listing

Temporary Building 13, I'm pretty sure on the campus map it's labeled as T13.

T13 is a random small (one-floor) building facing Main St right behind the psych building. I don't think it's an acronym...although I've heard that the 'T' stands for 'temporary', as in it's a temporary building.

There are also T28 and T29 right across from Commons, but those are pretty much just used for tests.

All of the T buildings are on the map, if you want to visually see where they are.

Thanks! I was able to locate it on the campus map. Im still very unfamiliar with the campus- about how long do you think it would take to walk to T13 from Brandon?

You should probably walk around campus and find all of your buildings sometime during WW to get familiar with it. Brandon & T13 are pretty much at opposite ends of campus, so maybe 10-15 mins, depending how fast you walk.

McMaster actually refers to is as "Temporary Building" #. They have it on all their maps.

I wouldn't say 15 minutes.... For the average person it might be 10 but you can get there in less time.
