Notre

BEAUTIFUL. Our campus is gorgeous. It is so compact. You never leave the landscaped grounds to get to any other part of campus. We are not spread out through the city - it is all one big bubble of a campus. The Golden Dome is the first thing you see as you drive in and there is just this amazing sens of awe. It looks like everyone's stereotyped fantasy of college with the old majestic buildings and students playing frisbee on the quad. Also, inside South Dining Hall is JUST like the Great Hall of Hogwarts
