<p>I visited the Stony Brook campus yesterday for the first time in about 25 years. 25 years ago Stony Brook was a complete dump, so hideous that it probably kept prospective students from enrolling. So I was pleasantly surprised, and even shocked to see how nice the place looked. Kudos to whoever was responsible for this wonderful transformation!</p>
<p>how did it look in the old times?</p>
<p>Stony Brook’s previous president, Shirley Strum Kenny, was largely responsible for the transformation from mud to beautifully landscaped walkways and fountains!</p>
