frankly i think a dream school should be a school that doesn't actually exist. It should be a highly idealized entity that exists within our minds only. In that sense, I would like a campus structured like tian an men square in beijing, with a series of buildings similar to Low Library at Columbia and Widener at Yale, a few gothic chapels (Yale, Duke, Chicago), and add on vast commons of lush grass (like a lot of state schools). Academically it would have an amazing core curriculum. Basically, it would be directed studies (like at yale) but incorporating both western and eastern civilization in a two year sequence. Then the major would be selected out of mostly international fields. Law would be a dual degree program, and a 5 year BA/JD program would be available. how's that? i'd be interested in hearing other ideas.
