<p>Visit to a small school in Pasadena: [url=<a href=“http://www.troovi.com/T1joEh7P5X6Y]CalTech[/url”>http://www.troovi.com/T1joEh7P5X6Y]CalTech[/url</a>]</p>
<p>Cannon is the one MIT pranksters stole. (sorry, one of the pictures got rotated)</p>
<p>Pictures taken when we visited the campus about a year ago.</p>
<p>Stopped at a LAC on our way to UCLA: [url=<a href=“http://www.troovi.com/VkdUQK7BVIFi]Occidental[/url”>http://www.troovi.com/VkdUQK7BVIFi]Occidental[/url</a>]</p>
<p>small but beautiful campus in the middle of a quiet LA residential neighborhood.</p>
<p>Pictures from UCLA stop. Didn’t spend too much time, we were in hurry to go to the beach.</p>

<p>Wow tippu thanks so much for the pics! :)</p>
<p>Oxy is where obama went before transferring to columbia, btw</p>
<p>Caltech has a pretty horrible campus. Which was the university you went to for a programming competition?</p>
<p>And lol at you cropping yourself out in some of the pics</p>
<p>Ah thank you Tippu! It’s pretty refreshing looking at pictures of the campus that aren’t propagated by the said school.
I liked the first Uni, UChic, and Rice. CalTech looked really nondescript.</p>
<p>Thank you for the pictures Tippu. I’m impressed by the… weather!</p>
<p>U Chicago library is beautiful! I liked the other pics too although I couldn’t look too closely atm. I’ll be able to scrutinise properly when hiatus ends.
It’s very nice of you to share them with us Tippu.
I agree with what arun said: It’s nice to see some stuff that isn’t the school’s material.</p>

Excellent video. Sir Ken is brilliant.</p>
<p>nemo, that was very interesting. thanks!!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>No, it is not as bad as my pictures portray. It is very compact and has its own charm. Pasadena is a very nice place. </p>
<p>MIT campus, otoh, is very very ugly and I can not see myself spending four or more years there even if I had the qualifications to get in. Killian Court @ MIT is meh.</p>
<p>One of the things I do when I am at a college campus is visit the bookstore and look at the text books prescribed for science (physics) and engineering (ee/cs) classes. What I find interesting is that several of these books are written by profs at universities which most of us would dismiss in a heart beat.</p>
<p>Another boring campus on west coast: [url=<a href=“http://www.troovi.com/wki1LfFyvyjw]HMC[/url”>http://www.troovi.com/wki1LfFyvyjw]HMC[/url</a>]</p>
<p>The building that looks like a cheap motel is one of the dorms. All dorms have similar looks.</p>
<p>But Santa Monica beach is not that far and IMHO the weather more than compensates for ugly campus. Pomona and other Claremont campuses are very nice.</p>
<p>ani, I have left enough clues in my first set. I’ll give 5 chances to guess.</p>
<p>Guys…SUNY is one of the good Uni ryt? Then how come its avg SATs scores are less than mine?</p>
<p>Thanks for the link nemo!</p>
<p>hey guys…!!!</p>
<p>hey ans, enjoying snow in mn?</p>
<p>yeah loving it! loved the blizzard, loved the metrodome collapse (not really)!</p>
<p>whatup tippu?</p>
<p>Hello Ans! How have you been?</p>
<p>Wish you good luck in the finals.</p>
<p>First Guess: The unknown university is Stanford?</p>
<p>CalTech campus reminds me of a few Delhi colleges. Hot places seem to have similar structure of buildings.</p>
