Wesleyan University, in my hometown of Middletown CT, has many pretty buildings; but ironically, perhaps, the Center for the Arts is entirely made up of these stark, oppressive buildings, which I like to think could be described as "Brutalist", although I don't really know. I grew up with these, and I have a sort of fondness for them and their interaction with the grass and trees around them (they look to me like a Greek ruin rendered in very primitive polygon graphics) but all in all I think they are bleak, and horrible.
