They didn't let us see anything inside except hallway of Memorial Hall. Guide told us science building was ugly, which was obvious. Other buildings looked nice from outside.

The buildings are breathtaking. Annenberg Hall and Widener Library were my favorites. The whole campus is just so grand on a large scale. Every effort seems to be made to keep the campus beautiful.

Sunny, bright day, but could be a bit better for the freshmen campus (now Duke, there's perfection)

Wow...I loved the campus so much! The older buildings are stunning--especially Memorial Hall. The surrounding area of Cambridge is charming, yet large enough to satisfy any craving for city life.

the buildings were gorgeous, but a bit old-fashioned. But I prefer harvard's architecture over MIT's modern-crap buildings.

Not very impressive at all. Campus spread out, lots of traffic, not even in the same ballpark as Princeton, Brown and Stanford

This is what a college should look like.

Gorgeous, of course. Make sure to walk along the Charles and check out the river houses.

Georgian architecture. Gates, house buildings, all beatiful. Annenburg hall is very Harry Potter like, though they don't let you go into the main hall.

The Yard is really just muddy and roped off in sections. No flowers anywhere. Something is missing, and I think that those grey clouds are always overhead.
