W&M. As the second oldest campus in America, known for educating U.S. presidents and attracting intellectually curious students and professors who love teaching, it doesn’t get much more “classic.”

Duke, UChicago, and Princeton.

Vassar for sure. Mount Holyoke is classic for that feel as well. Williams. Certain parts of Princeton.

In some views, the Science Library kind of ruins things, but otherwise, it's really beautiful, and the surrounding neighborhood is just so charming (if you take out that one stretch of Thayer with all the eateries).
