The Most Beautiful Campus in Each State

According to Travel & Leisure.

The Most Beautiful College in Every State

A list that includes Creighton but not West Point makes me think Ray Charles did the reviews.

Vanderbilt over Sewanee? Nope.

 

[Jake_Taylor]

I'm not sure I would have had K-State in the Top 5 for Kansas.

 

[Armchair_QB]

Wyoming was easy. Only one school to pick from.

Gosh, what's your top 5?

I think it's a beautiful campus.

 

[dixiehack]

This was Creighton

Did they shoot this from Iowa? Marla Hooch got more of a close-up than this.

It's also a very pretty campus (at least from April-October), all the buildings have sandstone elements in their construction.

Parts of UVa are beautiful, other parts, not so much. Richmond and W&M are far prettier if you include the entire campus.

Washington and Lee is a beautiful campus, too.

Nevada's entry is 15 minutes from Tahoe ... if you're a snail.

Shocked the College of William and Mary didn't get love.

And, for as pretty as West Virginia University is, they picked the ugliest ****ing photo to illustrate it.

I thought the Wake Forest campus was fairly ugly, but maybe it was because we looked it over during the ass end of winter. And no students to be found, since it was spring break at the time, but the NCAA Tournament was playing at the arena across the street, so I did get to hoist beers with Bill Raftery after the games one night.

I do think it is pretty, but KU, Fort Hays, Ottawa and Baker are prettier, in my opinion.

 

[Inky_Wretch]

Flagler over Rollins in Florida? Humph.

 

[typefitter]

I know Montana doesn't have a ton of schools to choose from, but U of M really does have a beautiful campus.

 

[swingline]

"Most unique" rears its ugly head in the Nevada description. **** a ******* duck in the ass.

Tru dat.

Of course you wouldn't. :rolleyes:

I will say, Friends is a weird option to include as honorable mention. And Kansas Wesleyan ... once I threw up just outside the basketball gym there during the Heart of America basketball camp. I made for a ****ty basketball camper, but I did win an award for telling the week's best joke.

 

[Machine Head]

Great thread.

I wonder which state has the most colleges?

Wisconsin has to be up near the top.

As someone (AQB?) said here once, there's one off every exit from interstate.

Oh god, HOA basketball camp. What year(s) were you there?

Google tells me:

California was home to 399, more than any other U.S. state. In second was New York (307), followed by Pennsylvania (260), Texas (208) and Ohio (194).

What State Has the Most Colleges & Universities?

My wife worked in college admissions at Drexel in Philadelphia and always talks about how there are 80 colleges in the city. I'm not sure what exact geographic region that refers to, but it was always impressive enough to me.
