Ugliest Campuses and Prettiest Campuses

College Life
261

<p>Pretty: Princeton, Notredame, Stanford, Yale… Oh CORNELL on my #1 list.</p>

<p>Ugly: Ugh – Harvey Mudd For Sure… Mit, Georgia Tech</p>

262

<p>Notre Dame is absolutely gorgeous.</p>

263

<p>Brown’s dorms are ugly???</p>

264

<p>From what I’ve visited (I didn’t think any were really ugly)</p>

<p>The Best (in order): Princeton, JHU, Penn, University of Delaware
Not bad (in order): College of New Jersey, Peabody, American
Ehh: Carnegie Mellon, Rowan
I’ve never actually been to all of Rowan, but a lot of the inside sucks because everything is colored school colors! BROWN AND YELLOW!</p>

265

<p>Of all the schools I’ve visited:
Beautiful: Virginia Tech, UVa, Rose-Hulman, MIT, Caltech, UCSD, Georgetown, George Mason (I’m biased on that one; it’s right near my house :p).
Not-so-beautiful: USC (yes, that is where I go!), Purdue, GWU, UChicago, Harvard, Rutgers-New Brunswick, William and Mary, GA Tech, U.Md-College Park.</p>

<p>

Uhh, what war are we talking about? If you’re talking about the '92 riots, that was in '92 not today.</p>

266

<p>William and Mary not beautiful??? <em>chokes a little</em></p>

267

<p>Does anyone know how Columbia’s campus is? I heard that the surround areas of Columbia were very dirty, but I haven’t heard or seen much about what the actual campus looks like.</p>

268

<p>According to my friend:
Columbia-grass, pretty buildings et cetera.
One step out of Columbia-third world country.</p>

269

<p>vanderbilt is by far one of the most gorgeous campuses in the country</p>

270

<p>

</p>

<p>Hmm… I bet some third world countries would love to look like the areas surrounding Columbia.</p>

<p>Sad but true.</p>

271

<p>Columbia is beautiful. San Francisco State is also really interesting and funky; I like it. Eugene Lang is amazingly designed.</p>

<p>Any of these **** Fordham up the ass. Fordham sucks. At least the LC Campus.</p>

272

<p>Fordham’s Lincoln Campus and Rose Hills Campus are as different as night and day. Before you say Fordham s—ks, you might want to look at the Rose Hills Campus. It blows Columbia away, I might add–and yes, I’ve been on both campuses. (in fact all 3 locations, if you count both Fordham campuses).</p>

<p>Columbia is okay, though–the library in particular is impressive–and the surrounding areas are better than what surrounds Fordham’s Rose Hills (Bronx) campus.</p>

273

<p>As far as ugly, I’m now including Carnegie Mellon (visited there yesterday). It even makes MIT look good. And it makes neighboring Univ of Pitt look great by comparison. </p>

<p>I don’t think any of Carnegie Mellon’s classrooms or structures would meet the building codes in my local community.</p>

274

<p>Don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet, but as far schools in the Midwest:</p>

<p>Kansas - Definitely one of the tops in the country…hilly as all get out, but Mount Oread is a great setting</p>

<p>Nebraska - my alma mater so I’m partial, but a great walking campus. Surprisingly attractive considering it’s seriously in the middle of Lincoln’s downtown. The Tommy Lee Goes to College show did a great job of showcasing it.</p>

<p>K-State: not attractive, even in a windswept plain sort of way.
Iowa State: The female student body is amazing…the rest of campus not so much.</p>

275

<p>I mentioned it before, but it’s HARVEY MUDD. Ugh…</p>

276

<p>Bentley college?</p>

277

<p>SF State Sally? It’s nice to be in SF, but that campus isn’t great. Pretty depressing weather too (always foggy.)</p>

<p>Most beautiful:
Cal! judge for yourself:

<p>Wisconsin
Colorado
Princeton
Virginia</p>

<p>Pretty nice:
Bryn Mawr
Stanford
McGill
UW
Michigan
Indiana
UCLA
UCSC
UWash.</p>

<p>OK:
Georgetown
Penn
Columbia
USC</p>

<p>not that great
Maryland</p>

278

<p>errr… the upper west side could not be further from a third world country</p>

279

<p>Berkeley is nice, but Stanford I think beats it overall–though you get a much better view of the SF bay at Berkeley (Stanford has no bay view at all)</p>

<p>Bentley is all brand new buildings on top of the hill with a view that are constantly updated–and while Waltham downtown is old, Bentley is in the “good part” of town–all beautiful homes in upper to mid- to upper neighborhoods.</p>

<p>The facilities there are all top-notch. And they are working on the academics. Only place I know where your foreign language tutor is actually on the internet with you from their home country.</p>
