Not really. Just older and stuffier.
And more beautiful
Not really. Impressive, but less inviting and, to many, not as beautiful.
I find this is bs from someone who’s never been. “Less inviting?” These colleges everyone’s calling beautiful are literally based off of Oxbridge. There’s nothing in the design of Trinity college, especially, that you wouldn’t also feel is less inviting at Yale or Princeton.

I would rank Trinity College (CT) amongst the most beautiful if it was in a bucolic rural setting instead of Hartford.

I think Cambridge and Oxford have the best architecture and landscaping/gardens and are in charming cities. One of the reasons they my appear less inviting is the colleges restrict visitors and may charge fees. But they would be absolutely overrun with tourists if they didn't, which should tell you something about how they are generally perceived.
The thread is really about college campuses in the United States.
Some of you always bring up Cambridge and Oxford, not necessarily because you think they are the most beautiful, but simply because you want to rebut any claim that a particular American campus stands out.
It didn't say U.S. only, and I simply think Cambridge and Oxford are the nicest.

Yale is the "most beautiful" campus.
I honestly don’t know how the heck Yale could be considered a beautiful campus when you have incidents like this going on:

Everyone of those students should have been expelled. Yale’s reputation and “beauty” has never recovered after this.
You seem dumb.
DP. It's kind of like touring a beautiful house that has a ton of dog poop in the yard. The house is pretty, but you can't forget the smell.

you don't understand the difference between architecture and campus incidents?
The student body makes the school regardless of outward physics appearance of the school grounds and buildings. Architecture may be nice but you can’t unsee these entitled brats in this video. And what’s with the snapping.
this is a thread about most beautiful campuses though, so take that elsewhere

Excellent architecture, yes, but I could make an argument for Princeton, Cornell, Colorado, Pepperdine, etc. based on other factors.
+1.
Yale has some gorgeous architecture, yes, but the campus as a whole is not more beautiful than Princeton, and Cornell’s setting is far more beautiful.

This is a sarcastic response, right? It's a bunch of incongruent buildings, some old, some new, some ugly, with no sense of campus or together-ness. NYU holds their graduation at Yankees Stadium outside of the city because they literally don't have a great lawn or area on their co-called campus where they can hold a graduation ceremony or gathering of any size larger than 200 people
No, seriously it's perfectly integrated into the capital city of the world. With Washington Square Park serving as its central hub, the vibe is truly unmatched by schools stuck in the middle of nowhere with boredom.

So if a bad incident happens, disqualify the entire campus? UVA march, Berkeley protests, Columbia sit-ins, VT shooting, UT shooting, Kent State, bomb scares. . .? Makes no sense.
Pretty much
Tell us where you went or where your kids go. There will absolutely be an "incident" we can point to. Stop being idiotic.
DP
Clearly they didn't go to college.
We can hope that they didn't reproduce.
