This Atlanta university has ranked among the best in the country since opening its doors in 1885. Despite its urban location, the campus of Georgia Tech features plenty of green open space, giving it a peaceful, suburban feel. There are many locations worth visiting on a tour of campus. The Kessler Campanile, an 80 foot obelisk-like design, is a gorgeous campus landmark. For those with an interest in visual and performance arts, make sure to visit the Ferst Center of the Arts. In addition to exhibits of contemporary visual art, the center features an auditorium that hosts theatrical and orchestral productions throughout the year. It should come as no surprise that college athletics are serious business at this Atlanta university. Though there are more than 15 men’s and women’s varsity sports teams, the football and baseball teams are the athletic program’s biggest draws. The football team has claimed a handful of national championships over the course of its history, and its annual rivalry game with Georgia, referred to as “clean, old-fashioned hate” is one of the biggest events on the school’s calendar each year.
