What do you think of when you think of McMaster?
So doing a little informal survey here. When you think of McMaster what do you think of? So I don't steal anyones thought i'll give examples of some possible answers for Guelph: Agricultural school, party school, prison residences, bakery in cafeteria... etc.
just wondering what Mac students think of McMaster. Answers like giant bureacracy or things with negative connotations will be read, but not really what i'm looking for. Something that you can be proud of. If you have nothing to be proud of for being here... why did you come here!?
what do ya think?

GO Bus trips home and Mary Keyes - because it's the first and last thing a GO commuter'd see at Mac. (Unless you're really keen and watch out for Bates)
Other than that, I suppose the natural space, like the lawns in front of BSB and JHE. I also particularly love Hamilton Hall and walking to the North Quad from behind it.

Pretty old-style buildings, green space. Whenever I picture Mac, I always think of University Hall first

Yeah but the BSB/JHE lawns and HH are the nicest parts of campus. I think of a campus with a hospital made of worn concrete blocks, with an extra flight of stairs to a non-existent top floor.

To expand on that: A generally miserable IT Infrastructure not upgraded since Bush senior was in office. |

The top floor is only there if you believe it to be there. |
