Message: [QUOTE="ecasadoSBU, post: 3942946, member: 3976"] I did a roadtrip of the Southwest/Midwest which I mentioned before in another post. well... to keep it short. I visited Cincy and since it was during covid-19 and there wasn't much to do... I decided to drive-by Xavier and University of Cinci... (also eventually visited OSU at Columbus) I was fascinated by the lovely and hilly urban campus of the University of Cincinnati. Honestly I was quiet impressed. It looks well-maintained, aesthetically pleasing, and they squeeze a heck of a lot of buildings into a relatively small central campus. The football stadium is jam packed in between other buildings. Yet, it all looks really good with the hilly terrain. For someone like me that attended a sprawling suburban campus (Stony Brook University) and whose wife attended rural UConn... it was a nice to see a good looking open urban campus for a change. especially as the nearest urban campus to my house are Fordham and Columbia (both locked-in and mostly segregated from the rest of the city) Also saw a lot of research buildings further from the central part of campus. Looks like a good school... but hey I have nothing more than looks to back it up Definitely UofCincy looks like one of the economic/research engines of the city. Xavier not so much other than a smaller private catholic university [/QUOTE]
