Schools with traditional campus feel but within a city

Anonymous
We visited Fordham and DS liked that it had a traditional campus feel but also easy access to NYC, which made us wonder what other schools have a similar campus feel. Any recommendations? Any personal experience you can share? What was campus life like? Any concerns over safety (other than using common sense and being aware in an urban setting)?

I believe Richmond and American are both in less dense areas of their cities (Richmond for Richmond and D.C. for American). American has a traditional campus and Richmond's is pretty traditional but I think lacking an official "quad". Both are not urban campuses.

Richmond is in the suburbs.

Georgetown’s campus is fairly contained but offers easy access to the rest of Georgetown. Contrast it with a school like GW which is very much mixed in with the surrounding city.

They are close to the city but not really in the city.
