East Coaster suburbanite talking:
In my opinion, there was never any charm and appeal to this campus unfortunately. Look at Northwestern, Harvard, Wash U -
that is charm and appeal
It can only get better - and a Starbucks is a step in the right direction!
Purdue doesnt have a bad campus, I've seen worse. But a lot of it is a huge eyesore, so I'm glad to see some of the newer buildings coming up! Too bad I'll be long gone by the time theyre completed.
