All of my Accounting classes were in Bidgood Hall and the Bruno Business Library--took me 10 mins to walk from my house off campus.

Ten hoor.

The inside is shitty and way to crowded. The class rooms are too hot or too cold. It's way the frick away from my fraternity house.

I was on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico on an overnight fishing charter when parking passes opened up one year. I ended up with a SE Commuter pass. It was pure hell.

That list is not quite right.

Actually drove/walked around UNC, UVA, and Vandy over my Christmas break. UVA is a true work of art as Jefferson intended and should be ranked higher. UNC doesn't belong on that list. And Ole Miss is a hell hole. I'm gonna declare that list nonsense.

Do you think that whenever renovations or additional buildings are considered on UVA's campus that the BOT asks "is this what the founder envisioned?"

It's not too bad. Better than paying 800$ for a pass when it not that much farther than a lot of student lots

I went without a pass for my first year here but I got tired of getting parking tickets at the Rec at 7:30 am. Plus, it sucked walking in the rain.

Yes. At UVA they sweat the sweat off of Thomas Jefferson's nuts... like for real.

UA parking people are fricking Nazis. I parked in the faculty lot at the Ferg for literally 5 minutes one time and got a ticket even though the lot was maybe 1/3 full.

I park in the factuality lot behind ten hoor all the time. They don't seem to check there too often.

I look back and laugh at some of the places I've parked on campus. Truly random arse spots

If Sewanee were still in the SEC, it would rank number one. Most of you probably doubt that, but only because you have never been there.

I'm pretty sure most of the people here have never even been to the campus of the football team they cheer for.

I think the main quad was stunning. And what seemed to be around it looked good to me. It was a brief visit. And I didn't like how part if the campus was separated from the other part. But I stand by my original statement. It's breathtaking.

The thing I notice about that list is the fact that most of those colleges are small. I say that the reason they're the nicest is the fact that they aren't big enough to be considered ugly. There are parts of UF that could be mistaken for an Ivy League campus.
Actually, a few of the buildings on UF's campus have been used in movies as stand-ins for Harvard University buildings. UF's Campus Historic District is gorgeous (I'm biased). Most of the buildings are in a Gothic architectural style with gargoyles/grotesques, and many of the buildings are covered in ivy. UF has none of the Greek Revival architecture that is so prevalent on most SEC campuses. Gothic architecture along with palm trees and tropical foliage give UF's campus a very unique look, imo.









Outside of the Historic District, the buildings are generally ugly.
