I agree; we thought their campus was lovely.

In my dictionary, the definition of dessert is sugary and fattening. And in moderation, yummmm.

I had to Google it. Bowdoin. This article has VT at no. 3. We ate wood-fired pizza; sushi; Mexican; and pulled pork all at one time when we toured. http://www.businessinsider.com/20-colleges-with-the-best-food-in-the-country-2013-9?op=1

Please start a separate thread if you must - the VT people are spamming this one with too many factoids about one school.

I find it spot on. Don't you think that really good dining hall food is something "great/surprising about a college campus"? I can't help it that it the good food came from Tech.
