Ah, the Northwestern Civil War. It’s been a part of this campus for years, now, and as much as we might fool ourselves, it’s not going away any time soon.If you’re unfamiliar with it, take out a map of campus. You’ll see that the campus is generally divided into three sections. There’s South Campus, the home of the sororities, the residential colleges and a few smaller dorms. The main grounds take up the middle section, where all the administrative and academic buildings are. At the top is North Campus, where all the fraternities and most of the Engineering majors are.The divide of North and South is great on this campus, and chances are that you will not spend time with your counterparts on the other side of Sheridan. But which side of NU is better?Sophomore Alice Truong lived in Roger’s House her first year, a small all-girls dorm on South Campus. Senior Deena Bustillo, however, spent her freshman and sophomore years in McCulloch Hall, a completely different experience (Bobb-McCulloch is co-ed and one of the biggest dorms on campus). The girls decided to answer a few questions about their respective campus homes.
What kind of people live on your part of campus?AT: I bet my South Campus could beat up your North Campus. You see, only the most absolutely coolest kids belong to the exclusive club of South Campus living. Because of the location of their classes as well as respectively themed residential colleges – East Fairchild, Shepard, Jones – you generally have the (liberal) artsier kids instead of the techies: communicators and journalists, musicians, fine artists and just some really, ridiculously cool and good looking people.DB: North campus is filled with those who enjoy frats, 20-minute walks to class, Lisa’s Caf
