Guess the Campus

Another "Guess the..."! Cause we all know we need more of them. This one is for colleges and universities around the world! Anything on a college campus is game, just please use discretion on what is and isn't IMPOSSIBLE to figure out.

Please, if you intend to guess, don't cheat. Please give your source and credit the photographer. One guess per post, please. Multiple posts are allowed, as long as they aren't made within seconds of the others.

Are you allowed to guess more than once in a separate post? I know one of these new sprung up spin offs doesn't allow it. If so I do have just 1 more guess.

Buckeye got it. But, Edmonton got the city first, and he probably doesn't know many universities in Alabama...

Let's just try to be sure and answer with the school name for now on. I'll have to let Buckeye post the next one though, his answer was the most accurate.

Haha, it's fine Edmonton. Trial and error, trial and error, as long as it works out in the end, it's all good.

Judging from wikipedia, I'd say yes.

Kinda reminds me of how one reporter for my college newspaper called his column "The Clocktower Sniper"
