Cornell? Ithaca is a pit. The approach to the college looks like Route 1 in MD approaching UMD.

I think they all look stupid. UVA looks like a plantation ... Duke looks like a prison for pedophile priests, Unc looks like the NIH campus ,... Lots of em look like installations for the insane.

Just fire all these morons and go on- line .

Miami of Ohio is pretty, but I liked UVA and UNC Chapel Hill better.

Sounds like Virginia has lots of nice campuses, unlike Maryland state schools. Anyone have a Maryland state or private school to add to the list?


UVA is a dive. Gritty and undistinguished. Get ye back to Virginny.

And Umd doesn't freeze your ass off after October and a couple stops from the U S Capitol beats a day trip to buffalo.

The University of Notre Dame


Notre Dame and St. Mary's in Southbend - just gorgeous. Too much snow, though.


And too many rednecks.

Cornell has both.


So does Colgate.


Ewww. Colgate? It'd dour. And the dorm room suck.

Follow the link for Julian Abele, the AA architect who did much of the design, but wasn't allowed on Duke's campus.
The architect who is credited maintained a life-long friendship with Abele.
