Sorry that campus is HIDEOUS. The only thing it has going for it is the Pacific. Otherwise, the buildings look circa 1960 Soviet Union.

+1, though I'm biased as an NU grad. It's pretty striking, though.

UCSD??? Really. We toured and it looked like 70s junk condos.
OMG, you didn't walk to the beach did you?!?!
You probably saw grad housing complex. So many spots you can go sit down and just look over the pacific ocean and the beach...
I love UCSD but people who expect college campuses to look like Yale or Oxford might not get it. The architecture is very modern and is intended to complement and highlight the natural beauty of the setting but is not classical. I like it but it is not to everyone's tastes. That's why Pepperdine tends to get high marks -- it has classical architecture in a gorgeous California setting. A crowd pleaser.

This UNC grad agrees with the above! (Also think my alma mater fits the bill.)

Granted I am very biased since I am originally from the area, but I absolutely love the Northwestern campus. Very charming.
