We all know beauty is only skin deep. What about things that don’t have skin, though? My latest slam, Permantha, was born without it, and she’s still a respectable 4/10. Things are going great between us, too. I don’t ever have to take her out in public because the UV rays burn into her like laser beams, and I don’t have to kiss her because apparently my saliva contains enough germs to put her in quarantine for no less than 45 days. Granted, I’m not allowed to have any physical contact with her so hooking up is kind of weird, but it’s chill because we’ve jerry-rigged a system of pulleys with mannequin hands on the end to make sure we’re both sexually satisfied.

Pretty concerned, you guys. DeVry isn’t on the list. What gives? You can literally make your desktop background a picture of anything you want, including any of the colleges that made this list. I call bullshit.

    Robert Frost wrote poems about Miami U but the steaming pile of turds in the middle of the ghetto U Chicago campus cracked the top 25?

      The fact that Miami U didn’t make this list is nonsensical. It is easily top 25; probably top 10.

    I would think DeVry would be top 5. Nothing like the view of your computer screen from your $400/month apartment denim couch.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For me, no campus will be as gorgeous as my own.

      SFPL applies this theory to his own haircut, no matter how horrible it appears to the public eye

    I have been to Furman, it does not even deserve to be on the list let alone number twelve. I hated that school.

    Truthfully, I’ve always said that Ole Miss and Bama are the two most beautiful campuses that I’ve seen in the SEC. I haven’t visited A&M yet.
