The U of A campus located within a historic section of the Tucson city footprint. It's close enough to downtown that you can walk or even better, ride a bike (Tucson is rated high in the Top 10 bicycle-friendly cities of America). I'm not a student, however I do attend musical events at several of the university's event buildings every year or so and get that friendly flashback feeling each time. I went to college in 1969 so it's a familiar old feeling, too.

As you walk around the area, enjoy people-watching, the lively discussions, and the kooky kids. Make sure to have lunch nearby in one of the many restaurants and beer joints adjacent to the school boundary on the West side and perhaps even you will flash back comfortably to your early days.

The University is spread out so bring your walking shoes.
