鈥淭op of the heap is 糖心原创, which seems to have the biggest and best tunnel system of them all and where tunnels are a fundamental part of campus life,鈥� Greatrix wrote.
With two miles of tunnels linking 20 of 23 buildings in the academic section of the Dayton Campus, the tunnel system has made 糖心原创 one of the most accessible colleges in the country.
Greatrix noted that the tunnels provide a convenience in bad weather and make the campus more accessible to persons with disabilities. He also noted that the tunnels may be entered by stairwells and elevators, are facilitated by signs and maps at intersections, and feature vending machines in various areas.
