Universities with Mediterranean Architecture

<p>I was just wondering which colleges/universities have buildings built in Mediterranean architecture. The ones that i can remember are Rice University and Stanford. Can anyone think of any other?</p>

<p>Emory has a Spanish look to it. </p>

<p>Look at Southern California schools - lots of them have Spanish architecture.</p>

<p>If you're looking for something other than Spanish, however, I have no idea.
I've never seen a school with Greek or Italian style buildings.</p>

<p>I might be wrong but spanish architecture is a bit different from mediterranean architecture
Santa clara university has mediterranean architecture.</p>

<p>^You're right. But Stanford and Rice are the ones the OP specifically mentioned, and those are definitely Spanish.</p>

<p>University of Detroit has Spanish architecture (no kidding).</p>

<p>USC, Notre Dame, and LSU all have something resembling French/Spanish/Whatever.</p>

<p>UC Berkeley has some buildings that look neoclassical. For example, Wheeler Hall and the main library. The Campanile wouldn't look at of place in an Italian village either. The campus isn't a Mediterranean theme throughout though.</p>

<p>The original San Diego State University campus was constructed around 1930 with Mission Revival architecture. The original campus now forms a "historic district" within the larger modern campus. Not sure if Mission (or "Spanish Colonial") style is exactly the same as "Mediterranean", but it must be related.</p>

<p>The best-known Mission Revival building at SDSU is probably Hepner</a> Hall, which is on the school logo. But my personal favorite is their authentic and historic Mission-style Boiler</a> Plant.</p>

<p>whats the difference between Spanish and Mediterranean Architecture?</p>

<p>Spain is a mediterranean country so Spanish architecture can be considered mediterranean. However, it is just one of the many countries around the mediterranean (Italy, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, etc. are others).</p>

<p>Scripps College</p>

<p>The University of Colorado, I believe, is Italianate of some sort (architecture isn't my thing)</p>

<p>There may not be too many universities with Mediterranean architecture, but check out some of the high schools in rich parts of Southern California. Beverly Hills HS and a lot in Orange County come to mind. :P I don't know how that helps, but meh.</p>

<p>But I am looking at universities/ liberal arts colleges in the top 100 US news & world report list. If anyone can saw any compliation on the internet please post the link.</p>

<p>BTW i was looking at spanish architecture, i m sorry i didnt make that clear</p>

<p>UT Austin's campus is classified as Spanish Renaissance. The core of the campus mainly consists of buildings with limestone facades, beige brick, and red tile roofs.</p>

<p>The University of San Diego (USD) has Spanish Renaissance-type buildings. Please see the link below.</p>

<p>USD is not ranked among the top 100 national universities by USN&WR, but is close (#105). Here?s the list:</p>

<p>While not Med, U of Tampa has some unique Turkish-style buildings.</p>
