In general, state flagships to me look all the same with different paint jobs. The only exception, to me, is UCLA


I find that all SLACs look the same. They all blend right into each other.

You’re telling me Pitzer looks like Williams looks like Sewanee looks like Colorado? Really? I don’t even think WASP look particularly alike.

CU Boulder should be #1.

Odd list. It seems more like a list of reasonably nice campuses that everyone already knows about. I’ve visited probably 50+ campuses between family visits and my past work in recruiting. Lewis and Clark in Portland OR is the prettiest campus I’ve seen.

You been to all 50? What are you obsessed or something?

Didn’t really like it when I visited with my kid. I expected to like it, but neither of us thought it was that great. I can see why people might like it though.

Sorry, this is complete clickbait crap.

Note distinguishing features such as, say, Middle Path at Kenyon, Long Walk at Trinity and Martin's Way at Hamilton. Better yet, walk these paths from end to end. Any opinion you might share after having done do would be a fair one. For further variety, cross the Canyon Bridge at Reed.

I've been to two of the schools you listed, in addition to countless other SLACs across the country and my opinion stands. They all blend right into each other. I'm sorry this upsets you.

Michigan. Beautiful in all 4 seasons. Iconic buildings with a mix of Gothic and art deco. Plus cute chunky squirrels

Actually, I'm quite comfortable.

Have you visited both University of Montana and Montana State University ? If yes, which did you find to be more beautiful ?

Thank you in advance.

Although I've traveled through Bozeman, in terms of actual campus visits, I've seen only the University of Montana from these two. I remember the flatlanders with whom I traveled, in particular, being impressed by UM's setting.

Thanks for responding to my question.

We visited the University of Montana during the summer of 2022. Maybe I expected too much, but I was disappointed. The buildings seemed old and worn. the setting was nice, but not spectacular.

After learning that the Brad Pitt movie "A River Runs Through It" which was supposedly set in Missoula, but actually filmed in the Bozeman area, I wished that we had taken time to visit the Montana State University campus.

To follow up, I had the potential to be disappointed at UM because the side of Mt. Sentinel that forms its backdrop is largely treeless, which might suggest environmental devastation. However, it's believed that the natural aridity of this face is responsible for this state. Perhaps MSU is more extensively forested in its immediate setting? I concur with you on UM's campus buildings themselves.
