[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rice -- set in the middle of Houston, but within hedges that surround a beautiful quad. The colleges (dorms) aren't that pretty, but the quad is lovely.[/quote]

You have low standards.[/quote]

Rice is nice.  But for top 10 U.S. I'd go with:

Kenyon
Middlebury
Mount Holyoke
Sewanee
Richmond
Yale
Duke
William & Mary
Princeton
WashU

I think it really is in the eye of the beholder -- I've lived on or near 3 of these campuses and would not have picked any of them!  I find Yale to be a very intimidating, overly gothic-castle feel.  And I think Amherst has the prettier campus over Mount Holyoke.  Princeton just feels to me very....preppy golf course, but I guess it is nice.

Northwestern is, to my mind, the prettiest campus I've been to.  The trees, the lake, and the amazing and varied architecture did it for me.  I can see an argument for Swarthmore too, but it felt a little too "lost in the woods" for me.   But for someone who loves being in the woods, I can see that it would be a top choice.  [/quote]
