Looks like a bad airport concourse out of the 1970s.

Yale -- Parts of the campus are very nice, but it's surrounded by New Haven, which is challenging.

Cornell is consistently rated as one of the top campuses in the nation mainly for it's beautiful location on top of a hill overlooking a lake. The architecture building on the campus looks like it's falling apart and the interior is a mess, but the university doesn't update the building. The program is still one of the most desirable to attend. A lackluster location requires the buildings to be more inspiring. An urban campus doesn't require building upgrades as much either if there is enough of an interesting urban fabric around the college.

Pretty subjective, don't you think?

You mean the studio space? Because Milstein has that fancy new addition. They probably won't touch the studio space because of some silly old tradition. They are a little wackyballs.

And like PP mentioned, it must be subjective because I loved that area and would never call it lackluster. I love the outdoors way more than urban environments.

BU has no quad, only "BU Beach." But the location can't be beat. The views from the just about any dorm room above the third floor are great and Student Reviews ranks it #3 nationally for location behind only neighboring Northeastern and Emerson and just ahead of Pepperdine and Miami.

Has to be sarcastic, as Princeton generally is considered one of the more beautiful campuses.
