Elevators are nice. It doesn’t matter why you need or want to use one, just go ahead and do it. I won’t judge you for taking an elevator, I promise. Below is my completely unofficial, totally non-definitive guide to BC Elevators, from worst to best.
Disclaimer: Being a freshman, I haven’t actually been to many buildings. Higgins? No idea. Devlin? Nope. Any dorm besides my own? Not really. I am not an expert on elevators, but trust me anyway?
Mac: Did you know that there’s an elevator in Mac? There is! It’s sketchy.
