Jose, first let me say I've been a GPS users for all of about a month now so
not a huge amount of experience but here are some ideas.
First, it's likely that the streets in your college are mapped. I say this
because the other day I was in a large apartment complex and even the unnamed
streets used between buildings were appearing in the map and my location was
accurate. If they map apartments I'm sure they map universities.
Next, even if not mapped you can still get a heading and distance to a POI.
You could mark the various buildings and locations with POIs so you could find
your way back later. Also, if the buildings aren't marked but the streets are
working properly you could certainly define your own POI list that marks the
facility.
That's just my $.02, far more experienced and mobility skilled folks will
probably give you better answers but that's a n00by's perspective.

Hello; Listers, I have a question. Is it possible to use the gps in a college
campus? How would I accomplish this? Please write back.
