context_page_description: Bridgewater State University is the largest of nine state universities in Massachusetts. Including its off-campus sites in New Bedford, Attleboro, and Cape Cod, BSU has the fourth largest campus of the 29 institutions in the Massachusetts Public Higher Education System. BSU's sports teams are called the Bears. School colors are crimson, white and black.
context_section_description: The John Joseph Moakley Center for Technological Applications (1995, 49,000 square feet (4,600 m²)) is named for the late former US Representative John Joseph Moakley. This facility features computer labs and a large technologically enhanced auditorium.
  The faculty union, MSCA, occupies a small house on Burrill Avenue, across from the Moakley Center.
  Walter and Marie Hart Hall (1979, 25,500 square feet (2,370 m²)) is connected to the Moakley Center and contains classrooms and offices for the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, the Department of Secondary Education, the Department of Elementary and Early Childhood Education, and the Psychology Department.
  Martha Burnell Hall (1979, 70,650 square feet (6,564 m²)), located on Hooper Street and connected to Hart Hall, is a former 400-student elementary school that was run cooperatively by Bridgewater State University and the Bridgewater-Raynham Regional School District. It served as a model school and an area for student teaching and pre-practica experiences, replacing the former Martha Burnell School in Harrington Hall. In 2008, the elementary students moved to other schools in the town of Bridgewater, and Bridgewater State College re-appropriated the building for its own use. It currently houses the campus daycare center, and a dance studio has been added.
  East Campus Commons (2002, 32,000 square feet (3,000 m²)) houses a dining facility, the campus bookstore, and a Dunkin' Donuts. It is located across a small courtyard from East Hall (see below), a new co-ed dorm constructed at the same time.
  The Adrian Tinsley Center (2002, 84,000 square feet (7,800 m²)) was constructed at the same time as East Campus Commons and East Hall and is named after the university's immediate past president, Adrian Tinsley. It is located behind the Great Hill Student Apartments and Swenson Field, and is the new home of the college's athletic programs. The building contains a modern fitness center as well as a large partitioning gymnasium, a running track on the second floor, and classrooms.
  Operations Center (2003, 30,632 square feet (2,845.8 m²)), also constructed at the same time as the Tinsley Center and East Hall, is located slightly downhill from Shea and Durgin Halls (see below). This facility houses the Campus Police Headquarters and the offices of carpenters, custodial services, electricians, mechanics, groundskeepers, a locksmith, painters, plumbers, recycling, and transportation.
  The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority runs a commuter rail train station on the BSU campus. It is located on East Campus near Crimson and Weygand halls. This is the Middleborough/Lakeville Line, which runs from Middleborough to Boston's South Station.
