When I was a college student, and lived in the dorms, we ate in a place called "Quad." I believe it was a part of Main Hall, which was were much of the "partying" took place at the (recent) reunion.
I'll attach a picture of Main Hall, as it shows the architectural style of the "older" buildings on campus. The dining hall itself was a large, Gothic style area. I had many good conversations there.
Note the pink flamingos in the foreground. My class always had "good taste."

I do too, and did when I went to school there. Some US colleges go with brick, imitating Harvard. Others go with grey stone, imitating Yale. ThHis one imitated Harvard. And they did it well. But they've over-built their 90 acres now. I did not take picture of the newer buildings.

Where was this located at? The only place I've ever been to in Iowa was Mason City.

@TheHorse Cool. I have no idea where Grinnell Iowa is, but cool nonetheless.
