Having read utility meters throughout the UI campus for a few years, I can

You can go from the Wallace Complex to the Alumni Center, and from the
Memorial Gym to the SUB, totally via steam tunnels.
Had McCain been elected president, my fall-back plan (if migration to
Canada lost its appeal) included a comfy little "cul-de-sac" about ten
feet below the Ag Building.
