Transportation
Olin Van
Olin College has one (1) passenger van, a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan that seats seven (7) people (including the driver). The van is available to the Olin College community for official college business (i.e. student Clubs and Organizations, Competition Teams, course-related travel, Passionate Pursuit travel, etc.).
