It's not about rooms. One of the required courses is sailing. Only so many little training sail boats can even fit on the Charles.


And at least back in the day, the pistol/rifle range wasn't very large either (and had a variety of competing users.)


Why doesn’t MIT dredge a lake on campus then?

...and the rest of campus is some of the most valuable real estate in the world.
