Brick vs Concrete

<p>Your guess is as good as mine. This is my dad's Alma mater, so I have been around it a lot as it is only 20 minutes from my home. All I know is that there are some really nice old red brick buildings, but all of the newer ones are concrete like the one in the link before. My best guess why they did that funky thing on the outside is to mirror the honey comb stained glass window on the back wall of the Abbey Church (see below). Even the Church looks like an airplane hanger and is made out of concrete. </p>
