If it makes you feel any better. I think the corps uniforms might be uglier than campus.

ht, what don't you like about UT's campus?

drab and just not very attractive. trust me, i'm pretty objective. ut's campus isn't exactly beautiful. i think its in the same neighborhood as a&m's, but a little more attractive....not much.

I can't honestly say I have ever heard the A&M campus referred to as ugly. Sports Illustrated sucks even though they had nothing to do with this blogger's post at all.

ok this thread is getting a little depressing. Yes we have some abomiantion buildings *cough* west campus *cough* but we do have some nice areas.

Here are some pics I took my junior year over the summer, feel free to show off some of the nice parts Aggieland too!

Those pictures should end the debate.

Those pictures need to be bigger.

Walk from the architecture buidling to the library to the academic building. It´s very nice. And not all beige

SI has one of the ugliest magazines.

ugly magazine?

In the 80's the Japanese would send over design students to study our campus. Not only is it one of the largest in the world it is also one of the best planned (then). As the oldest university in Texas there are plenty of appealing architectural features to enjoy, especially if you know anything about design. So, suck on it SI for publishing some Dumb punk blogger's uneducated opinion.

UT has an equally industrial feel to that of A&M in my opinion.

I think Texas' campus stacks up pretty well against other's I've seen. And I've seen more than a few.

All colleges have some ugly stuff. In particular, just about anything built in the 70s-80s is going to look like crap.

The worst looking buildings at Texas fit in there. Since I'd guess A&M did most of its growing during that time period, there you go.

There’s not much wrong this campus except for the lack of color.

Well what do you want??? Pink and purple buildings with cool paintings on the walls? If you don't like the way the campus looks, then maybe you should put your money where your mouth is and give some money for new buildings instead of wasting it bit**ing on TexAgs!
