Faux Princeton?  Check out the real thing, not some cancer school funded by death sticks.  [/quote]

You know Princeton is modeled after Oxford and Cambridge right?

If you want authentic, you have to go to Europe. [/quote]

DP.  Even so, Princeton has a style than Duke lacks, perhaps because Nassau Hall once served as the U.S. Capitol and the town is historic as well.  Duke is more obviously a copy of something else, and Durham was a tobacco town.

And almost every picture of Duke seems to be the Duke Chapel, whereas pictures of Princeton highlight any number of the buildings on campus.  [/quote]
Almost every photo of Princeton is Blair Hall[/quote]

Nope.  Do a search for the campus and it will pull up lots of pictures of Nassau Hall, Holder Hall, East Pyne, Whig/Clio, Firestone Library, McCosh Hall, and others in addition to Blair Arch.

Duke is nice, especially in the spring.  It just doesn’t wow me the same way.  People mostly pay attention to West Campus and the Duke Chapel. Virginia Tech and Washington U also have a lot of nice Gothic buildings.

I love the archways at VT.
