If your college doesn’t have a few Brutalist buildings, I think it might mean finances were strong in the period when those were built. So many colleges have a Brutalist “black sheep” or two. I think they’re funny.


Brutalism was a used because it was in vogue, not due to money. Harvard and Yale have brutalist buildings and they are generally considered among the most wealthy.


And it’s always the math and sciences buildings.

Occidental College (Oxy) is gorgeous. The perfect Spanish-style marina architecture and built in 1800s. Quintessentail liberal arts college but make it Spanish style architecture.


You sound like a dork writing out the pronunciation.



PP wasn't writing out the pronunciation. PP was adding in the nickname for each of the schools he was discussing: SLO, U Dub, and Oxy.
