High Point University: They didn't build colleges like this in my day

The new communications school was especially impressive, with its chandoliers, gaming technology and state-of-the-art video equipment and studios.

Then there are the fountains throughout the campus and the piped-in outdoor music.

Heck, when I went to Carolina, we couldn't even get them to put doors on the men's bathroom stalls.
