[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe I’m in the minority, but I think Pomona’s campus is boring. Nothing that’s architecturally interesting—just a lot of Spanish colonial with red tile roofs. And it shares a campus with a bunch of other schools. I get that SoCal has nice weather, and that access to LA is a plus. But I wouldn’t want  to go to college there, regardless of its academic reputation. [/quote]
It used to be a lot prettier but sustainability goals have nerds it. The campus used to have Ivy everywhere, massive live oaks, and public gardens all over. My junior year, they had to trim the Ivy because it had grown through the pavement and was spreading to buildings it wasn’t supposed to. It surprisingly still has red woods (which btw, that’s such an insane decision in Southern California). You can see some remnants of this on scripps college, but all of the colleges have severely cut back on water usage- which great, but makes for less aesthetically pleasing energy.[/quote]
This explains so much! I went on tour with my daughter and felt like it was so much less “green” but couldn’t put my finger on it![/quote]
