<p>I prefer Columbia's campus. I love neoclassical architecture and the brilliant use of space makes it <em>feel</em> bigger than Penn.</p>
<p>Additionally I think Columbia's campus grounds are more well-maintained than Penn's. Locust Walk is missing an absurd amount of bricks and is practically disintegrating as you get to superblock. The streetscape around there is also in advanced decay.</p>
<p>But that is inevitable when your facilities dept has to look after almost 300 acres as opposed to to Columbia's 36...</p>
<p>(also this decaying infrastructure is planned to be fixed in the early phases of the eastward expansion master plan)</p>
<p>Anyway I'd rather go to Penn.</p>
