those were all good submissions, but might I add:
Choppin Hall. Luckily it is hidden by the new anex.
The Life Science building
Williams Hall
Whoever designed that part of campus must have been a communist.
and of course who can forget the POS:
Last test I ever took at LSU was in one of these rooms
Found this badarse pic while searching and thought I would share

What it should look like when completed.
Tutwiler is actually a smaller version of Rose Towers.

at MSU ...
Dorman Hall. The ugliest building on campus happens to be in one of the prime locations on campus. Luckily when College Gameday was there they were able to hide it from the cameras because it is literally RIGHT ON THE JUNCTION.
Sessums Hall. The last of the "old dorms" at MSU. Everything else has been renovated or razed.

Forgot about that ugly building. It does look like a piano from above. So there's that.

Tutwiler is beautiful on the inside.

UK has art studio space in the Reynolds Buildings off Scott Street on the edge of campus. Used to be tobacco warehouses or some such. Anyway, pretty damn awful inside and out.

I'll go ahead and say the old Tate Center and Bookstore as well, especially given that old Tate is attached to the very nice-looking new Tate:

Those pics are of the old Engineering Shops that date back to the campus' construction. So those need to be renovated, not demolished.

Athletic Director Joe Alleva said the current and future focus is about improving the fan experience, an attempt by LSU and other schools and professional franchises to stop or even reverse the gradual leaching of ticket-buying fans to seats in their living rooms in front of their massive high-definition TVs.
Alleva said LSU is even looking into the possibility of converting some of the disused old dormitory rooms in the stadium into additional rest room space.
“We have the best fans in America, and when those fans come, they make it a tremendous atmosphere,” Alleva said.
“The game day experience our fans enjoy is critical to making sure they come back.”

Kirby Smith hall at LSU
We are stuck with Kirby Smith for a few years. As LSU replaces dorms, students are temporarily housed in Kirby Smith. The three dorms by Campus Lake will be the next ones to be replaced.

It's amazing they survived without government intervention.

Not too many hideous buildings on the UofA campus, but I think this one qualifies as pretty ugly:
That's the JB Hunt Center for Academic Excellence building, built in 2006/2007 if I'm not mistaken. It's not even THAT old, but I think they were trying to be a little too "progressive" with it and it doesn't fit in with the rest of the campus at all.
The Fine Arts building also qualifies, built in 1951:

nice post. The interior of Tiger Stadium is what bothers me the most. Tennessee for example, has a beautiful interior and concourse while LSU's looks like complete garbage. I really hope Aleva focuses on the restrooms in Tiger Stadium. I really believe it would help with attendence
