About this walk

It started as a few working men studying law in a lawyer's office and became a university with no campus walls, folded into the streets of Beacon Hill.

A campus is an argument in brick about what education is for. Boston has a long-running one. Four stops over 0.7 miles, about 45 minutes of walking. Each one starts talking the moment you reach it, so you can keep your eyes on the street instead of a screen.

Of the 50 MassRoam tours in Boston, this is the campus one. There is no start time to make — walk it in one go, or leave the rest for another afternoon.
