I've been to all the major North Carolina campuses. Not sure I buy Wake Forest over UNC, Duke, and Asheville (though Asheville might more about the surrounding scenery than the campus itself. Mountain universities have a definitely leg up on that point.)


I think Wake may have made it over Duke because of the odd bifurcation of Duke's campus, with one campus being Georgian and the other Gothic... and that odd neighborhood-come-administrative buildings section between the two.

There is that. Honestly, I feel a bit embarrassed to admit that I never really thought about what style the non-Gothic building were in.

And I do want to make clear that Wake is very pretty. It's actually the one closest to where I live right now (well, by about 15-20 minutes, at least.) I've only been there twice, once for pleasure and once for a conference, so my pick of UNC and Duke over Wake isn't exactly a heavily informed one. Grain of salt and all.
