Well, Sarah Lawrence has some incredible architecture going on, but it's all very close together. Sort of packs a whallop, I guess. I also love Middlebury's campus - lovely buildings, and the views of the mountains are incredible!

Continuing the southern theme, Washington & Lee and Sewanee for sure.

I love my campus (iowa state) because I always feel like i'm walking through part city park/part wooded area, if you added in great buildings and take away the playgrounds. oh wait...the campus was designed by the designer of central park. hmm

Princeton for best overall.
Columbia for best urban.

Vanderbilt would have to take best urban...
You can be twenty feet from the major road that runs alongside it and only hear birds chirping and the wind rustling the leaves of the trees that make up its national arboretum...

[insert the poster's school here]
I'd say Columbia but I'm a sucker for the neoclassical.
The best individual specimens are found at Penn (furness library droool) but there's a whooole lot of 60s crap on that campus that needs to be demolished. Fortunately, much of it is indeed scheduled to be.

I've visited a bunch of colleges, and Rhodes is my top pick.
