The college grounds are surrounded by a four-foot cinderblock wall capped with black field stone. A few trees grace its well-manicured lawn, but the place is dominated by a huge neoclassical pile. It has an imposing three-storey front with domes on the right and left wings. Rising behind it is the 15-storey round dorm tower.
