[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Brown 20 years ago. Sure, it's not the prettiest campus but that's only when compared to Yale or Princeton's quads. I still found it a pretty campus and it's surrounded by a gorgeous historic district. I liked the college hill vibe, close to an urban center but removed enough to be its own place. I visited last summer for the day and found it quite lovely, more lovely than I'd remembered. I can imagine standards have changed and people expect more from dorms and facilities compared to the past. The whole idea of roughing it slightly when at college seems to have gone out the window. Bit of a shame. Why do you need fancy dorms to study? A basic room does the job fine enough. College is more the people than the buildings. [/quote] You are 100% correct, and the dorm criticisms, while empirically valid, seem like classic Aesop's sour grapes.[/quote]
