	You cant be having a quiz on something subjective, no matter who's opinion it is. Back to facts, yeh?

	at least the creator used a decent source's opinion, in this case Forbes. No different than popular "Time's 100 most influential people" games, etc.

	I've been to Cincinnati and it pales in comparison to other schools even just in the Midwest.

	I have only been to two of these (Wellesley and UVA) and I agree they are both great campuses. When I saw Massachusetts I was really hoping it wasn't Harvard. I am surprised the Naval Academy was not on here, however, wonderful place.

	I think this would have been a fun picture quiz

	I have also been to Cinci... it is really nothing special

	wow this is a hilarious list. Cincy takes the cake. Of the schools I've seen I think there is an easy top 5. Princeton Stanford Pepperdine Notre Dame Harvard Virginia and UNC are very nice as well. Trinity is eh

	I can see why you wouldnt like Cincinnati if you like traditional architecture, but the fact is that Cincinnati has the best modern architecture of any campus. There are buildings by Frank Gehry, Peter Eisenman, IM Pei, Thom Mayne, and Micheal Graves, just to name a few. Its quite a collection.

	I can't believe Pepperdine isn't on here. That place is unbelievable.

	Haha, Oxford, prettier than Cambridge... beleive me, if it wasn't for fact Cambridge is full of boring twats, I wouldn't be in Oxford... Even Durham's nicer!

	i agree about pepperdine, although i havent been there i know that any coastal California university has amazing natural beauty. maybe they were only being judged on man-made things, just to be fair

	On a non-school-spirit note, I was surprised not to see Princeton. It's the most gorgeous campus I've seen in the United States.

	RebeccaAMax:	Mar 14th, 2010 at 01:17 GMT		0 points
	...wait, ignore that, I was thinking of a different list, not this quiz

	The Air Force Academy has a very beautiful LOCATION, but the CAMPUS is a god-awful mess of glass boxes that ranks near the bottom of best looking colleges in the state of Colorado, let alone the world. For an actually beautiful campus in that part of the world, check out the University of Colorado in Boulder. Or if you want to see a pretty service academy, go to Navy in Annapolis, MD.

	Dumb, too subjective.

	Mijzelffan:	Mar 16th, 2010 at 20:32 GMT		1 point
	Of course almost all of them are in America. Rated 1 point.

	The evidence against Forbes lists just keeps piling on...

	I live in MA and I should have thought of Wellesley. My first guess for the Virginia school was also William and Mary, and I agree that Pepperdine should have made the list.

	Oxford isn't one campus. Oxford Uni has lovely sites and pig ugly ones. Trinity is also only good in parts. And clearly the judges had never been to Royal Holloway College. Your source is somewhat suspect sir!

	LAME AND COMPLETLY SUBJECTIVE!

	VladKirr:	Jun 8th, 2010 at 10:38 GMT		1 point
	Source is severely subjective but I have no problem with that as much as I do with their anglo-american centric view and within that view their appaling lack of taste. Cornell, Cambridge, Dartmouth, Durham(the english one) St Andrew's - where be they? ...

	MoneyGrip:	Sep 1st, 2010 at 06:58 GMT		1 point
	Pointing out that such a list is subjective is spectacularly brilliant. All this time I was thinking it was 100% objective and based on the most rigorous standards of scientific verification. Alas, I...

	I love how Forbes made sure to add in one non-Anglo university just to remain credible. They probably spent 2 hours looking this up
