Andy student having the privilege to study in that university should feel immensely proud. Not only for the beautiful architecture but also for the undisputed international reputation of academic excellence.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beatiful school! And how lucky to live near such a place with such history!
ReplyDeleteWhat a grand place to be. I am always intrigued by places that bring the past into the present. They are humbling and awe-inspiring. And they remind me that life is very, very short.
